Our Mission

We will advocate for pediatric patients and palliative care initiatives where possible and appropriate.

To lessen the financial and emotional burden of children and their families as they cope with a life-threatening illness.

To make The Kara Fund a wide-reaching community effort, involving young adults locally and in other parts of the US.
