About us

Childhood Cancer Society (CCS) is a volunteer-run 501(c)(3) non-profit dedicated to helping families who are struggling with childhood cancer. From financial support to providing gifts/wish grants, our efforts help families battling pediatric cancer maintain a mindset that is conducive to healing. CCS’s wish grants are fulfilled through its Adventure Ted Program. Adventure Ted is the official spokes-bear of the foundation and he journeys around helping families overcome their challenges while maintaining a positive mindset. Within the Adventure Ted Program is The Enchanted Theme Park Vacation Experience. This is an all-expenses paid VIP Disney/ Universal Theme Park Vacation with 5 star lodging for a week at Give Kids The World Village. Our organization receives its support requests through our vetted network of social workers at hospitals we have partnered with throughout the USA.

  • From the desk of Mayor Al Kurpis and Judy Kurpis: Dear Friends, Judy and I are thrilled to extend to you a personal invitation to an extraordinary evening that holds a special place in our hearts. On Thursday, October 24th, 2024, we will be hosting a benefit dinner at the Ridgewood Country Club in support of the Childhood Cancer Society, where I have recently been elected to the Board of Directors. This event promises more than just an evening of elegant dining and warm company—it is a chance to unite for a cause that truly matters. As we gather together, our collective efforts will help provide comfort, support, and hope to families facing the unimaginable challenges of pediatric cancer. Throughout the evening, we will enjoy a silent auction, a cocktail hour, and a beautiful dinner. But more importantly, we will come together to make a profound and lasting impact on the lives of children and families who need it most. There will also be a special surprise announcement for six-year-old Anjali (pictured below) that you won’t want to miss—a moment that will showcase the life-changing power of our collective compassion for a child with cancer. We sincerely hope you can join us for this inspiring night. Please find the ticket information and sponsorship packages in the link below. Whether you choose to join us as a guest or support us as a sponsor, your contribution will have a lasting impact. The link to RSVP can be found here: https://lnkd.in/gz6nSW6Y Thank you for considering this invitation. We look forward to an unforgettable evening together, where our collective generosity will create waves of positive change. With warmest regards, Mayor Al & Judy Kurpis
