Kiona Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit advancing the future of cancer care through botanical science, data-driven research, and compassionate family support.  Founded in honor of Kiona T. Jenkins, our work is rooted in one belief:

  • Families should never have to choose between effective treatment or quality of life.

We bring together clinical research, plant-based therapeutics, and real-world patient data to develop safer, more holistic approaches to pediatric cancer care while walking alongside families every step of the journey.

Every Effort Makes a Difference!
Cancer impacts more than the body. It affects every part of life. We provide families with the resources, guidance, and care they need, from treatment support to recovery and beyond, so no one has to navigate this journey alone.
Innovating Less Toxic Cancer Treatments

Harnessing groundbreaking botanical research with data-driven precision, we’re transforming pediatric cancer care, from a $4.4M start to a projected $35.5M impact by Year 5. Every trial and breakthrough brings us closer to safer, gentler therapies for our children.

Compassionate Support for Every Family

We stand by every family’s side through the toughest battles. With vital support services, affordable housing, tailored nutritional care, and comprehensive recovery programs; we transform overwhelming challenges into renewed hope and healing.

Empower Community & Advocacy Change

Our community is our strength. By uniting families, survivors, and advocates, we turn heartfelt stories into bold, measurable action. Join us in driving change and raising awareness, because together, every voice makes a difference in the fight for a brighter future.
