5th Annual Kids 4 Kids RUN/WALK  
Brings Out the “Kid” in All of Us
In Support of 
Children's Cancer Research Fund

“During our 2009 Run/Walk, two year old Ry
(pictured) was
undergoing treatment for Leukemia,
while his family and
friends from Cox, Castle &
Nicholson ran on his behalf.
  Also at the Event was
Carlton, who at sixteen had been
treated for 
Leukemia and since has graduated USC and is
now 
on his way to medical school...our’s is a race that
keeps WINNING for the Kids!” 
Matti Contopulos
Founder/President
Children's Cancer Research Fund 

     Kids possess a uniquely powerful spirit of hope and an untarnished belief that their wildest dreams can be accomplished, whether it’s becoming President of the United States, or finding a cure for cancer.  Children’s Cancer Research Fund (CCRF) and Founder/President Matti Contopulos believe there’s a kid in all of us and created the annual Kids 4 Kids RUN/WALK.
     The concept for Kids 4 Kids RUN/WALK evolved
from important changes Matti has seen over the years in children’s awareness of cancer and the incredible generosity from kids of all ages wanting to help kids with cancer. “Countless times we’ve experienced amazing examples of hope and determination in children whether they were patients battling cancer or determined children who emptied their own piggybanks to make a donation to our organization,” said Matti.  This is a
spectacular Event as kids of ALL
ages from throughout Southern California participate in a truly fun Event with a very special mission: to create a HAPPIER and HEALTHIER future for all children. With the moneys raised, HAPPIER will be art supplies for a pediatric playroom at Mattel Children’s Hospital UCLA and at County USC Hospital, and HEALTHIER will be the funding of new grants in clinical research in pediatric oncology.  There is no RUN/WALK like this in the country and we feel it has become a national campaign with an incredible impact on pediatric cancer, having raised over $1 million in the first four years.  For the doctors tackling research, for the children and families dealing with cancer, and for our Most Valuable Players (YOU) who are participating...this promises to be an incredible Event for all.
