Event Information

Cancer knows no bounds of gender, age, or race - it impacts everyone.  In 2022 it's estimated that a little more than 1.9 million new cancer cases will be diagnosed in the US alone, and 609,360 people will die.  That's more than 1 person every minute dying because of this terrible disease.  

The Kingsgate Figure Skating Club is proud to partner with the Scott Hamilton CARES Foundation (CARES) to present Sk8 to Elimin8 Cancer™ Kirkland, Washington!  Proceeds from this event will support CARES' national cancer research grants and their healthcare partners here in Washington, Seattle Children's.

The Scott Hamilton CARES Foundation is dedicated to changing the future of cancer by funding advanced, innovative research that treats the cancer while sparing the patient. CARES is an established 501(c)3 and a national identity in the cancer community.  CARES, which stands for Cancer Alliance for Research, Education, and Survivorship, is creating a cancer network built upon strong partnerships with leading institutions, cancer support groups, and researchers to improve the quality of life and provide better outcomes for those living with cancer. 

A portion of the net proceeds from this event will stay local and support our healthcare partners at Seattle Children's and their Therapeutics and cancer immunotherapy research program. 

Seattle Children’s is an international leader in t-cell immunotherapy research to cure childhood cancer by boosting the immune system. They treat more types of relapsed or refractory childhood cancers using T-cell therapies than any other facility and have enrolled 400 patients in T-cell immunotherapy clinical trials including acute lymphoblastic leukemia and non-Hodgkin lymphoma, acute myeloid leukemia, brain and central nervous system tumors, neuroblastoma and other solid tumors.  The clinical trials developed by Seattle Children's Therapeutics focus on chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell immunotherapy with products made onsite at their own state-of-the-art Therapeutics Cell Manufacturing facility. At Seattle Children’s your family has a full team behind you, taking care of your child’s medical, physical, learning, emotional and comfort needs. Patients and families involved in immunotherapy trials have the dedicated support of a social services specialist.
