Kiger Cares

Encouraging the courageous hearts of families battling childhood cancer. The journey is like Disney World’s Space Mountain roller coaster.

Having a child with cancer carries so many hardships that are seemingly impossible to describe to other parents who have not experienced it. You are instantly thrust into a dark unknown. Everything is zooming by so quickly that you can’t even absorb what is happening or comprehend where you are or how you got there. With so many unforeseen twists and turns, you just hold tight and wait for the hop

eful light to the signal you have made it to the end of the ride. The purpose of our non-profit is to provide support to these families and ease their daily living. When your child is diagnosed with cancer, it becomes your LIFE. Your days are consumed with juggling doctor’s appointments, lab draws, treatment, convincing your child to swallow numerous pills, being prepared to run to the ER at the drop of a hat, managing the anxieties and whirlwind of emotions of your child and other family members, and trying to balance attention to your other children, all while maintaining some sort of normalcy. Kiger Cares' mission is to relieve some of these stresses, help with some of the daily tasks that become difficult to manage, and provide outreach to create some special family moments and connections with other childhood cancer families. THANK YOU for helping make Kiger Cares a reality and providing these families invaluable support through their unexplainably difficult journey.

No better way to start a Friday than making a delivery of Laundry Care Packages and All About Me Posters to Orlando Health Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children 🎗️💛🐯

02/16/2026

Excited to share another HUGE milestone for Kiger Cares - we are currently preparing our 600th Laundry Care Package to be delivered soon to Orlando Health Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children! 💛🐯

These simple gifts provide families the capability to wash laundry on their floor and stay near their child, helping to make the hospital feel a little more like home.

Each Package includes:
– 1 Canvas Laundry Bag
– 6 Free & Gentle Detergent Pods
– 6 Free & Gentle Bounce Sheets

When our family first started Kiger Cares, our hope was to make a small difference for even one family. It is incredible to witness how God has taken our goal and magnified it to the extent of our recent milestones. We have received extremely positive feedback and gratitude for these packages from the childhood cancer families and hospital team, which fuels our passion and continuously encourages us to keep pushing on. We are beyond thankful to be a part of this mission, for the people we have met along the way, for the pouring in of support from our community, and mostly importantly for the opportunity to support fellow childhood cancer families. 💛🐯

As we prepare for another delivery to Orlando Health Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children, we couldn't help but share this exciting milestone, as it will total to 550 All About Me Posters delivered!

Something like an activity sheet may seem like a small contribution, but no support for these childhood cancer families is too small and in fact, sometimes the smallest gifts can make a huge impact.

These posters encourage positive conversations outside of medical plans/procedures with the hospital staff, easing a stressful situation, and can serve as a conversation starter to connect families during their hospital stay.

For each person who has supported Kiger Cares, whether monetarily or through well wishes and prayer, THANK YOU! You are making a difference in the lives of these families going through an indescribable hardship.

Many of our followers are already aware, but for those of you who aren't, you may have been wondering why we haven't been posting as much. A little over a year ago, we lost our amazing, beloved Co-Founder and Vice President. While we may have been quieter, we have kept our promise to Jonny to continue our mission of supporting childhood cancer families - something he was incredibly proud of. We are beyond thankful for all the prayers and donations to Kiger Cares in honor of Jonny over the past year. We are looking forward to sharing with everyone what we have been up to and our next endeavors! As always, Jonny's light, passion, and caring nature will continue to guide Kiger Cares.

September is childhood cancer awareness month! 💛🎗️💛

This is something we wouldn’t have expected, but it’s true… we couldn’t even try to count the number of sedations needed during treatment for lumbar punctures and intrathecal chemotherapy.

Momcology says it perfectly… this is why Kiger Cares. 💛🎗️

🎗Sometimes people ask, WHY do you choose to stay involved with childhood cancer after treatment is over?

🎗The answer is simple: You can't "un-know" childhood cancer.

🎗Those days are etched in our lived experiences as parents, and they will always be remembered.

🎗Each child and family we encounter, along with their struggles, remains in our hearts.

🎗When you know where pain and inequity exists, you must try to do something about it.

🎗September is important because it gives us, childhood cancer families, the opportunity to let others peek inside our world and ask for help in honor of our children and the families we have met and supported through our own heartache.

🎗Awareness negates isolation and allows us to help each other, by bringing others in.

🎗When we can help others, we heal too.

🎗Awareness is an opportunity for new hope.
