GIFT BAG MAKING FOR KIDS BATTLING CANCER - FOR CORPORATIONS / COMMUNITIES ONLY
IMPORTANT: This event is for CORPORATIONS and COMMUNITIES willing to sponsor and host the event.
We bring the event to you!
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,” and the story of the gift bags.
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.
Thank you and hug your children often!
This event is an excellent fit for Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programs, offering employees a meaningful volunteer opportunity that aligns with purpose-driven growth.
About Koenig Childhood Cancer Foundation:

In this short span, Elana and KCCF volunteers have raised more than $2 million, aiding 3,700 families by covering medical costs, hospital visits, and special moment celebrations.
