The Andrew Olson Foundation

The Andrew Olson Foundation is a Kansas City nonprofit dedicated to supporting pediatric oncology patients and their families while promoting Andrew Olson’s spirit of compassion, strength, and love. Its mission is to provide practical care and encouragement to children affected by cancer and other serious childhood illnesses. The foundation raises funds for research benefiting pediatric oncology patients, grants wishes to critically ill children, and supports programs that foster children’s emotional, academic, and physical development.

Its assistance has included medication, financial support, and special experiences such as trips to Disney, culinary school, and car restoration. The foundation also partners with Bags of Fun Kansas City, providing backpacks filled with educational, interactive, and playful items. These bags offer children a welcome distraction and bring families moments of relief and joy during difficult times.

Through fundraising events, community involvement, and donations, the Andrew Olson Foundation continues its work on behalf of children and families facing serious illness.
