Each September, we walk together for the children. Families, friends, and teams raise funds and awareness in a day of movement, memory, and community.
Signature Walk for Pediatric Brain Cancer
Every October 10, we gather to honor O'Che and celebrate the families we serve. Our flagship evening brings together sponsors, advocates, and community for a night of remembrance, impact, and giving.
The 10/10 O'Che Day Gala
Our always-on engine of hope. For as little as $10 a month ; one dollar for each month of O'Che's life . Members provide the steady support that carries families through the hardest days of treatment.
The 10 Club (Monthly Giving)
Everything we do is built on the Power of 10. a thread that runs through our giving, our events, and our support in honor of the 10 months O'Che fought with courage. From steady monthly giving to hands-on family care, our programs turn that number into real impact: funds raised, families supported, and hope delivered right when it's needed most.

We measure our mission in more than dollars. Across this programming cycle, we're working toward $100,000 raised and 100 families given full support packages — real help for real families walking the pediatric cancer journey. Explore the initiatives, partnerships, and stories behind that goal, and see how a community united around one little boy's courage is changing lives across Tampa Bay.
The Power of 10, In Action
our community impact
Through recurring support, our Package of 10, and partnerships like our bereavement care with E-Motion, we help families find strength for the whole journey and beyond.
Strengthen Families
We meet families in their hardest season with tangible help: essentials, encouragement, and a community that shows up so no one faces a diagnosis alone.
Offer Hope
We raise awareness of pediatric brain cancer and keep O'Che's story and the stories of families like his; in the light, where they can move hearts and inspire action.
Shine Light

O'Che's mother & Foundation Founder & President
Forever our light. Everything we do, we do in O'Che's honor — so that no family faces this journey without hope beside them.
O'Che Kadrin Williams was our light. In his 10 months with us, he faced pediatric brain cancer with a courage that changed everyone who loved him. This foundation carries his name so that his light keeps shining — for every family who hears the words no parent should ever hear, and walks a road no family should walk alone.
