We are a foundation created to help children suffering from life threatening illnesses. All proceeds benefit the emotional state of children by bringing them programs to help uplift their spirits. These programs may be held at specific hospitals or centers that specialize in cures for these illnesses. Specifically, these programs will include supplying items such as computers, games, musical interests, educational visits. Our main focus is to help children to keep their thoughts on goals and future accomplishments.
To increase awareness of the foundations name, the Smiles For Kids Foundation has been hosting various monthly concerts in Somerset County at local venues such as churches, firehouses, and Restaurants. SFKF will be raising money to give directly to children or their families in any way that will promote the advancement of a childs dream and/or goal. Two annual events will be taking place to raise the funds for this unique program.
Rock the Park was our first event held at Pleasant Valley Park in Basking Ridge on October 1st. Bouno's Pizza and Nona's Pizza donated Pizzas while Custom Cakes by Kim supplied tasty treats for everyone to enjoy!! There were 16 bands, 2 stages, games, and fun for everyone!! Many local businesses sponsored the event including; SDC Studios, Bernardsville VW, Bernardsville PBA, Bernards Township PBA, Metro Auto Electronics Training Institute, and much more!! You can view a full list on our sponsors link above. Along with promoting our own cause, SFKF brought residents and business owners together to join in on this cause and indulge in a day of fun.
The second annual event will involve an evening of dining and dancing. Serving as a wintertime fundraiser, this event will request donations through direct mail to residents of surrounding towns. These residents will also have the option to purchase tickets to this evening where dinner, drinks and dancing will take place. This event will be a black tie affair and open to anyone who wishes to attend. This event will be located at either the local country club or the local hotel ballroom. More information on this event will be available soon!
