Sponsor Opportunities
The Kawasaki Disease Fund benefiting Children’s Memorial Hospital of Chicago, a volunteer based not-for-profit
organization, invites you to sponsor our KD Fund For Heart’s Sake Family Day/Walk. The walk
will take place on Sunday, October 5th at The Oakbrook Park District.
Why You Should Sponsor Our Walk
·
Kawasaki Disease (KD) is the leading cause of acquired heart disease in children.
·
Experts estimate that 5,000 to 10,000 children in the U.S. are diagnosed with KD each year.
·
There is no test and KD is often confused with other less severe illnesses.
·
The cause of KD is unknown.
·
Any child can get KD regardless of ethnic or socio-economic background.
·
If not detected and treated in time it can result in serious heart damage or death.
We need your help to continue to raise awareness about these striking facts and also to help in raising
funds that will go directly towards research for Kawasaki Disease at Children’s Memorial Hospital of Chicago.
