Children’s Mercy – KC Cares for Kids Walk
October 5th was the date for the sixth annual KC Cares for Kids Walk. Community partners, the leadership of the Children’s Mercy Cancer Center Auxiliary, and Children’s Mercy employees braved the rainy weather and had a fabulous time at this year’s event. The Walk raised more than $70,000 and counting for the Children’s Mercy Cancer Center Auxiliary.
