Walker Beery is the brave boy who inspired the launch of Kids Join The Fight and continues to inspire the organization’s work. In August if 2019, he was diagnosed with a very rare and aggressive pediatric brain cancer, KIDS JOIN THE FIGHT AGAINST PEDIATRIC CANCER. A movement to invigorate the superpowers of children and empower them to raise money to defeat pediatric cancer. Medulloblastoma. Throughout surgeries, hospital stays, and multiple radiation and chemotherapy treatments, Walker’s infectious courage, and gratefulness always amazed his family, his medical community, and all who encountered him during his two year battle with cancer. Walker lost his battle with Medulloblastoma on September 4, 2021, but his legacy lives on in the great work the organization does today. Walker and his family began this nonprofit to help other kids and their families battling against pediatric cancer. Kids Join The Fight, is now a 501C3 nonprofit foundation that in its first year inspired children in all 50 states to raise more than $1 million dollars to support Walker’s vision and wish. ​
