Our Mission
Childhood should be full of friendships, energetic play, curiosity and kindness. We call that kidness. When children receive specialized care, we ensure both the child and family have access to the support needed, all for kidness sake.
Our Journey
At For Kidness Sake, we believe children experiencing sickness deserve access to vital healthcare resources. Our journey began with a simple mission – to ensure all families have support when navigating healthcare. We are dedicated to making sure kids get back to their childhood, all for kidness sake.
