About H.I.S. K.I.D.S
Jim and Connie Miles founded H.I.S. K.I.D.S., Inc in 1984 following the death of their eleven-year-old daughter, Marcia to cancer. During the two years following, the Miles continued their involvement with childhood cancer families, clinics and hospitals thus realizing the great need for an organized outreach to these special children and their families and the Non-profit 501(c)(3) organization was born.
There is no other organization serving children with cancer and their families in the same way that HIS KIDS does. Each year HIS KIDS programs and services are offered to 2,000 seriously ill children and family members in our Midwest and Florida Regions combined. Every possible means is used to provide emotional, physical and spiritual support as well as emergency assistance to the families of children with cancer and related illnesses. All services and programs are provided at no charge and without regard to race, creed, color or financial ability.
