Our Mission

NO ONE SHOULD HAVE TO CARRY IT ALONE.

Kansas City Chiefs linebacker and Super Bowl champion Nick Bolton started this foundation for two groups who are asked to carry too much on their own: kids growing up in foster care, and people fighting and surviving cancer.

For Nick, his family raised him, fought for him, and taught him what it looks like to show up for someone else. That’s the bar we set for ourselves.

Because no one, no child waiting for a family, no survivor facing what comes after a diagnosis, should ever have to carry it alone.

WHAT WE STAND FOR

TWO PILLARS. ONE MISSION.

Change happens when a community shows up together. When you give, volunteer, or bring your company alongside us, you become part of why a foster kid feels backed up and a survivor feels less alone.

01.

Every kid deserves to grow up feeling safe and wanted. We stand with foster youth before, during, and after placement, because finding a home isn’t the finish line. Through mentorship, help with school, and people who stick around, we help kids in the foster system find their footing and believe in what’s ahead.

02.

A diagnosis changes everything, and the fight doesn’t end at remission. We stand with cancer survivors and the families beside them with real, practical help and a community that has their back. From the hardest days of treatment through the long recovery that follows, we make sure no survivor feels like they’re facing it alone.

WHAT WE STAND FOR

THERE'S A PLACE FOR YOU ON THIS TEAM.

Every gift helps move the mission forward. Whether you give once or choose to support us throughout the year, your generosity helps create stability, connection, and meaningful support for foster youth, cancer survivors, and the families standing beside them.
Bring your time, your skills, and whatever else you’ve got. From helping at events to supporting community initiatives and the families we serve, our volunteers help turn good intentions into meaningful action and make the work of the Foundation possible.
Lasting impact is never created alone. Businesses, organizations, and community partners help us expand our reach, strengthen our programs, and create more opportunities to serve. Whether you sponsor an event, contribute resources, or find another way to get involved, there is a place for you on the team.
