All net proceeds go back into our local community to help families whose children are battling a life-limiting illness. So, let’s get quackin’ and adopt a duck!

The Gr8t Chase devotes its energy to passionately advocating for children and their family who have found themselves in need of hope, compassion, and financial support as they are battling life threatening diseases - like cancer. No need is too small and no voice is too quiet to be heard. Our purpose is to provide financial and emotional support to families with children who are enduring life-limiting illnesses. Find out how you can contribute to someone in need through donations of money and time.
