Description
On September 19, 1999, Jacob’s Heart Children's Cancer Support Services held the first annual KIDRAGEOUS CARNIVAL and invited the entire community to honor children with cancer in a positive, family-center celebration of love and hope. Sixteen years ago, on that September afternoon, Jacob’s Heart collected nearly 1,000 signatures, and led the grassroots efforts to establish September as Childhood Cancer Awareness Month in the State of California by executive order. These efforts have since expanded to national significance and Jacob’s Heart has celebrated with KIDRAGEOUS celebrations honoring local children with cancer and spreading thousands of gold ribbons throughout the Central Coast every September.This September the celebrations are expanding. Stanford Children’s Health and Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital at Stanford have joined Jacob’s Heart to present four local events, each Sunday in September, in celebration of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month.
On Sunday, September 21st, we will hold our 16th annual KIDRAGEOUS Carnival in the Plaza in Watsonville from noon to 5 pm for face painting, live music, dancing and family fun!
