The Kawasaki Kids Foundation is committed to creating awareness of Kawasaki Disease, raising funds for research and educating communities and medical professionals on the signs & symptoms of a potential Kawasaki patient. Kawasaki Disease was discovered in the late 1960’s by Dr. Tomisaku Kawasaki. Today, it is still unknown what causes the number one acquired heart disease in children under 5 years old. In addition, treatment and long term care for children with long term KD heart problems is unpredictable. Funding is needed to support the research and development for the cause and treatment of this disease. Until then, 4,200 children a year will continue to live with the effects of Kawasaki Disease. Please join the Kawasaki Kids Foundation in raising funds while creating awareness and saving one heart at a time!
