I was going through Non Hodgkins Lymphoma in September and I applied for my milestone gift. I was beyond excited to get it because I saw a little light at the end of the tunnel. I'm so very thankful for Sadie Keller and her foundation because not only did it help put a smile on my face, but so many other kids.

This organization is a gift to so many!!! I love their Milestone Gift program that celebrates a huge milestone in treatment for kids fighting cancer or a gift to get them through a tough time. The smiles on the kid's faces say it all. Keep up the amazing work and giving all the families hope in the fight!!!

The Sadie Keller foundation has been so supportive of my teenage daughter battling cancer, and our family. They gave our daughter an iPad, so that during chemotherapy infusions, when she's at the clinic for 8 hours, she can watch Netflix and play games on her iPad. The foundation tailors the gift to the recipient, so that the child/teen gets something they wish for and it's age appropriate. They also gave my husband and I a "parent pack" including a notebook and $500 worth of gift cards that are super helpful when your child is in treatment. It is EXACTLY what every family needs when first diagnosed. Gift cards to uber to use for rides or food delivery, gift cards to amazon, target, and Visa gift cards for all of the incidental expenses you have while in treatment. The foundation is very thoughtful about how they support the child and family in crisis and we have been hugely blessed by them!

The Sadie Keller Foundation is unbelievable in their mission to raise awareness, financial support and change policies regarding childhood cancer!! This family has lived the nightmare of childhood cancer and has taken their experience to the world to raise awareness and affect change. Sadie Keller is a young pioneer that continues to blaze her way forward and is such a voice and face for all that suffer through childhood cancer. Sadie's efforts continue to inspire and the Sadie Keller Foundation is here to make noise for the long haul!

Sadie's vision to bring a smile to every childhood cancer fighter's face is evident in everything the SKF does- from collecting toys for children who are in the hospital at Christmas, to honoring childhood cancer fighters at various events, to helping support parents with SKF Parent Packs filled with gift cards to help ease the burden of transportation and meals while their child is in the hospital. Sadie speaks from her heart (and recent experiences) to help bring awareness and change in funding policies in D.C. Not only is this organization making a huge impact on families, but they are also making a huge impact on capitol hill.

The Sadie Keller Foundation was founded by a child who was going through something no child should ever have to go through. She didn't want other children with cancer to feel alone in the fight. The sole purpose for creating this Foundation was to help other children with cancer. Sadie is an amazing child who is doing wonderful things in the interest of raising awareness, raising funds, and raising the spirits of children with cancer. I have watched the idea of a child bloom and grow into a life changing organization. Sadie is remarkable!

Sarah and I met in early February right when my daughter was diagnosed with cancer. I requested the Milestone gift for my daughter once she hit her first big milestone, and they were able to get her number one choice, a kids jeep! She was over the moon! It has given her so much joy and it makes my momma heart so happy!

A few months later (this month!) we were invited to the Sadie Keller Yellow Ball, and it was absolutely stunning! So fun. We were gifted a parent pack, and a check. We are so very grateful for The Sadie Keller Foundation and of course Sarah and Sadie!

Sadie Keller is an incredible young lady and the awareness she is raising through her foundation is simply amazing. Like Sadie, my daughter is also a leukemia survivor so our family has been recipients of Sadie's Sleigh, parent packs and milestone gift. Such heartwarming gifts to help lift the spirit of so many affected by pediatric cancer and we couldn't be more thankful for the Sadie Keller Foundation! Don't stop advocating and bringing more awareness for all of the fighters, sweet Sadie. XO #sadiestrong #tatumleighiscancerfree #morethan4

The Sadie Kellar Foundation is absolutley amazing. Milestone gift Matt received has been a huge help during chemo and his many hours at home in bed. We are so thankful for the gift but even more for the kindness Sadie has shown while she battled cancer all on her own. Cancer has taken so much from our family but becausr of people like Sadie we have received so much more.

The Sadie Keller Foundation is the BEST non-profit in raising awareness for childhood cancer and for being there for children as they go through their cancer journey. Sadie is such an inspiration to all cancer warriors and Sarah is amazing to work with! My son Anthony, currently battling Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, has loved their care packages sent to him in the past, they were always so thoughtful and put a smile on his face even in the hardest of days.

The opportunity to work with such a wonderful and caring organization was my total privilege. The care they take to ensure that we were able to make Vara happy for hitting her milestone and it was perfect for her was beyond and expectations we had.. it was as if we were their main priority and we know they serve 100s of kids and parents. I am so excited for the work they do, the activism they do on our behalf so kids will get more than 4% and the parent care too! This is a foundation worthy of all the support anyone can lend to it. Sadie, Sarah, Shawn, and Grant are the best and all four work together so we can make a difference!
