Northwest Indiana Cancer Kids, or the NICK Foundation, is a 501c3 organization founded in 2009 by a local family that experienced the effects of childhood cancer. “Knowing your child has cancer brings a lot of uncertainty. There is nothing like having someone to turn to who has truly been there," said Kate Perschon, NICK Co-Founder. The NICK Foundation strives to supply assistance in areas of need for Northwest Indiana residents.
“We are encouraging the public to come out and help us, help them. The NICK Foundation is there in our time of need when we need them," said Crown Point Fire Lt. Mark Reed.
