More Than a Gala.
A Night That Changes Lives.

Every day, families facing childhood cancer are forced to make impossible choices between being at their child’s bedside and keeping up with the realities of everyday life.

​

At Strong Like AK, we believe no family should have to walk that road alone.

​

In honor of Adam Kincaid, we provide cost-free housing, financial support, and meaningful experiences for children and families navigating pediatric cancer. From covering rent and essential bills to welcoming families into the Strong Like AK House, everything we do is rooted in one purpose: keeping families together during the hardest moments of their lives.

​

The Building Hope Gala is more than an evening together. It’s a chance to carry that mission forward.

​

Because of nights like this, families find relief. They find support. And most importantly, they find they are not alone.
