The Kids Walk is a community awareness and fundraiser event. Families who have a child currently in oncology treatment will walk in honor of their child. Families who have lost a child to cancer will hold banners in memory of their loved one during this tribute. Survivors take this opportunity to take a victory march for conquering this disease. We also take this opportunity to make the signs and symptoms of childhood cancer known to the community as we place an emphasis on early detection which is key in saving the lives of young people battling this disease. 
 
Funds raised through this event will help Childhood Cancer Foundation of Southern California continue to serve as an integral support service for children and their families facing the challenges that cancer can manifest in their lives. Support programs include: Teen Connection support group for teens diagnosed with cancer, weekly parent support breakfast, weekly hospital visits to children on the oncology unit, Parent Pantry for parents at their child's hospital bedside, emergency financial assistance (transportation, groceries, funeral expenses, etc.) and much more.
