What began as a passion project for the Clothier family of Memphis, TN in 2017 is now an international club that has served over 2,100 families across all 50 states and 23 countries. When a child battling cancer or who is in remission is nominated by a loved one, we send a customized care package including a personalized jersey, a backpack full of Cancer Kicker gear, and an encouraging note straig
ht to their door and at no cost to them. These customized player kits serve as a symbol of solidarity connecting children as they face their common opponent – childhood cancer. By joining the Cancer Kickers Soccer Club, these families become part of a resilient support network of people working together to rise above the statistics and kick cancer to the curb. Additionally, through resources and online communities, we are able to help families connect despite physical barriers. At the end of the day, Cancer Kickers Soccer Club is about more than simply sharing the same colors on a jersey — it’s about being part of a team. When a child is facing a tough opponent like cancer, every ounce of Comfort, Community and Connections we can offer helps provide them with the strength they need to keep on fighting.
