  • When I, along with Poe and Jeffrey, founded A Kid Again in 1995 as a way to remember my son, Christopher, I could not have envisioned us growing to serve families across the country. Every day, we hear from the families we serve about how being part of A Kid Again is such a bright spot in their lives, which are often consumed with worry and medical appointments. It is my vision that every family who has a child with a life-threatening condition can be part of A Kid Again.
