The Kids Cancer Foundation hosted its annual Breakfast with Santa event on Saturday, Dec. 9 at Life.Church of Wellington.
The theme of this year’s Breakfast with Santa was “Grinchmas.” Families were encouraged to wear their holiday pajamas so it could be just like Christmas morning around the tree.
Families and guests were immediately greeted by the delicious aroma of a hot breakfast before entering the auditorium, which was transformed into a Christmas Wonderland.
Breakfast with Santa is a special event for the Kids Cancer Foundation. It is a beautiful opportunity to get KCF families together in a loving environment far removed from the hospital. This event is a great way for the children and their families to connect with one another and have a morning of fun.
Some of the children rode to the venue on a big, red fire truck with Santa thanks to Palm Beach County Fire-Rescue and the F.O.O.L.S. All the guests gathered outside to greet them and take a special photo op with Santa.
Once back inside, the families ate and traveled around the auditorium to various gift, game and craft stations. KCF volunteers and supporters for this event included Life.Church, supporting vendors like a face painter, Arts for Smiles, the Wellington Art Society, Bricks Busting Boredom and many others.
The Florida State University Pi Kappa Gamma fraternity put together a pickleball tournament weeks before the Breakfast with Santa event and presented the foundation with a check for $6,000 during the event.
