About this Event
At Kids’ Chance, our mission is simple: we provide scholarships to children of workers who have been seriously or fatally injured on the job. It’s a mission that we cannot fulfill without the support of a powerful community.
The 2022 Kids’ Chance National Conference brings that community together to empower our volunteers, recognize the support of our leaders and partners, and celebrate what matters most - our kids.
Join us in Charlotte! Kids’ Chance of North Carolina invites the entire Kids’ Chance Community to gather at the Marriott City Center in Charlotte, North Carolina on April 28, 2022, for the 2022 Kids’ Chance of America National Conference.
