Gift Bag Assembly for Hospitalized Children with Cancer - SPONSORSHIP & HOSTING
We bring the event to you! OPPORTUNITY FOR CORPORATIONS, COMMUNITY GROUPS
This inspiring, hands-on event brings together volunteers to assemble gift bags for children battling cancer.
Before the activity begins, Elana Koenig-teen cancer survivor, singer, speaker, and founder of Koenig Childhood Cancer Foundation-delivers a moving presentation titled "How I Turned My Pain into Purpose for Other Children."
Children are encouraged to participate, gaining valuable lessons in leadership, empathy, and the importance of giving back. A full project overview is available upon request.
About Koenig Childhood Cancer Foundation
Founded in 2020 by then-11-year-old cancer survivor Elana Koenig, KCCF is a 100% volunteer-run organization that is child-initiated, child-led, and adult-managed. What began with just $900 from Elana’s piggy bank has grown into a powerful movement supporting children with cancer through compassion, creativity, and community action.
In just a few short years, Elana and a dedicated team of volunteers turned the charity into a multimillion dollar charity, provided life-saving financial and emotional support to more than 3,600 families, and delivered over 70,000 gift and care bags to hospitalized children.
Thank you for joining our efforts. We are stronger together.
Elana and the KCCF team
