Real Mom Elves Stocking Holiday Shelves! Each year while putting our Holiday Gift Guide together, Real Mom Media stocks the shelves of a local charity for the holiday season. This year, we will be playing Santa for Kisses for Kyle!
The Kisses for Kyle Foundation offers a variety of services to families fighting childhood cancer in the Delaware Valley. The Kisses for Kyle Foundation believes that the entire family is affected when a child is battling cancer. Additionally, the child is struggling to feel “normal�, and other children in the family can feel left out while attention is focused on fighting cancer.
How You Can Help Volunteer. There are so many ways to volunteer and there is something for everyone! Kisses for Kyle Foundation Kissing Booth. Promote our cause and support our organization by setting up a booth in the community! Dress Down Day. Raise money and awareness by organizing a DressDown Day at your work or school!
