The Michael Hoefflin Foundation for Children’s Cancer has made the difficult decision to cancel the 2020 10th Annual Walk for Kids with Cancer, which was originally scheduled for March 21 at College of the Canyons.

“Our top priority remains the health and safety of our participants, volunteers, staff and especially, our families,” said Mike Jaffe, Executive Director of the MHF. “Just because the official Walk has been cancelled doesn’t mean that we can’t proceed with some of the fun activities. We would like to invite all of the participants to contact our office to arrange a pickup of their commemorative gift. We would also like all of the walkers to send in photos of themselves out walking (or a team photo, if it can be done safely) and we will post them on our website.

“Additionally, our silent auction will move online and can be found starting Monday, June 15, at
www.biddingforgood.com/mhf. All of us at the MHF thank our sponsors and participants for their support and understanding,” Jaffe said. “We ask that everyone continue to take all steps necessary to stay safe and healthy.”

Donations for the walk can still be made at https://www.classy.org/event/2020-mhf-walkfor-kids-with-cancer/e268154
