About Us

The Q Foundation for Kids® was founded by several members from the Order of Quetzalcoatl® for the purpose of being able to help and assist more children. This group determined they would be able to raise additional money to support children by becoming a 501(c)(3) organization. The Order of Quetzalcoatl® has been assisting and helping children for years through their own efforts, now this Foundation has opened up the doors to help even more. The Q Foundation prides itself in helping children and their families with:  

•  transportation to and from the Shriners Hospitals
•  temporary housing  
•  meal and sundry expenses

OUR MISSION

The Q Foundation for Kids® purpose is to perpetuate the financial support and expand the funding provided by the Order of Quetzalcoatl® and others. We enable and/or assist children in achieving care in/through the Shriners Hospital for Children system. This includes, but not limited to, the transportation / temporary housing / meal and sundry expenses of patients, and accompanying guardians of patients. All this, while the child is under the care of or being evaluated for care at The Shriners Hospitals for Children and all affiliated clinics and outreach facilities. The Q Foundation for Kids® overriding purpose and mission is “Enhancing the Experience of the Shriners Child and Family”.

Because of this family approach of the Q Foundation for Kids® children who are patients at Shriners Hospitals for Children are kept together with their families during times of hospital stays when possible.  Additionally the Q Foundation for Kids® provides funds to Shriners Hospitals for Children for the purpose of transporting medical staff and capital medical equipment needed.  These efforts reach around the world.  For more information on Shriners Hospitals for Children click here;   https://www.shrinershospitalsforchildren.org
