Cancer Kids First New York City

Saving lives starts with YOU!

Who We Are

Cancer Kids First is the largest nonprofit organization assisting pediatric cancer patients. Over the past four years, CKF has gathered a family of 28,000+ volunteers and 70 chapters worldwide to reach over 10,000 patients. This website is for the New York City chapter of Cancer Kids First, dedicated to New York City’s most whole-hearted youth who are struck by their unfortunate situation with cancer. We aim to help them regain their everyday lives again. Please read all about our mission and what Cancer Kids First is here!

Gift A Miracle

In our Gift a Miracle program, we bring all types of goods to patients, whether it be teddy bears, flowers, cards, and more! With Gift a Miracle, you can either choose to gift to a random patient that our volunteers have been bonding with, or you can choose to send it to a specific patient!

“Your contributions mean the world to the patient and really make their day”
