"A Celebrity for a day, A Rock-Star Forever"
Founded in 2012, we have served over 1000 children with a staff of two and a core group of committed volunteers. The Goal of "The Ferrari Kid Experience" is to remind each child that they were BORN for GREATNESS, that God has a special purpose for their life, and to provide hope, love, and encouragement during their journey with cancer or their other illness, as well as remind the family that they are not alone. We follow that initial experience with a monthly event called The Hope Tank. It is here that the children and parents get together and talk about issues, participate in activities, and simply love on each other in a non-judgmental space. What makes us unique is that our donors can be part of the experience with the very child they get to sponsor and support.

The Ferrari Kid is a non-profit organization that gives kids coping with cancer and dealing with any illness the ride and experience of a lifetime. We specialize in making kids celebrities for a day. No needles, chemotherapy, or surgery on this day. From the moment they’re picked up in a Ferrari, the excitement begins. They arrive at a celebrity destination of their choice (the spa, mall, games, dining, and Spurs events) and receive a V.I.P experience, complete with red carpet, ropes, paparazzi, and autograph-seeking fans. It’s a day they will never forget and allows them to have fun and simply be a kid. It’s a beautiful day filled with fun, love, hope that they and their families can enjoy. We include the whole family, because cancer not only causes the patient physical, emotional pain and turmoil, the families suffer too.
