Fundraisers and Events to Benefit Kids With Food Allergies

Creating Better Lives Today!

With your support, KFA is Creating Better Lives Today™ for children with food allergies and anaphylaxis through our Education, Peer Support, Food & Cooking Assistance, and Outreach programs.

Please support one of these upcoming fundraisers to help us achieve our mission.

• National Recipe Showdown Event
  Supporters invited to host parties for the fundraiser until September 21st
  
  
  You are invited to participate in a special national "KFA Recipe Showdown" event.
  Here is how it will work:
  
  First: KFA Members created and submitted original recipes for the competition-fundraiser.
  
  Next: KFA supporters like you will host house parties to prepare and vote on the recipes and collect donations for KFA. House parties will be a fun way to raise awareness about what it's like to live with food allergies while supporting Kids With Food Allergies, a tax-exempt nonprofit charity!
  
  The theme for this competition is "Grillin' and Chillin'." Challengers were invited to submit a hot grilled recipe and/or a chilled recipe.
  
  KFA provides the recipes for your menu, a party planning checklist, invitations, and educational materials. You provide the location and the guests! Your party can be as large as a support group event, or as small as a family barbeque.
  
  
  For more information: Participate in our National Recipe Showdown!

  We want to extend a sincere "thank you" to KFA volunteer Kristin Johnson for hosting a "Bitty Banquet" Fundraiser on July 19th, 2008, that raised $695 for Kids With Food Allergies.
