KB4C (Kiteboard 4 Cancer)
July 6-7, 2024 Hood River, OR October 11-18, 2024 St. Joseph, MI
*Stay tuned for 2025 dates. Sign up for our newsletter!
KB4C is the financial and historical foundation of Project Koru and one of the largest amateur kiteboarding events in America.
The KB4C fundraiser is meant to challenge riders physically and mentally as a way to stand in support of young adults who have been diagnosed with cancer. It is as much about harnessing the power of healing, as it is about harnessing the wind. It is through this exciting fundraiser that Project Koru is able to change so many lives.
The KB4C fundraiser has expanded over the years to include sports like foiling, SUP, winging, and even an open water swim race.
Here are some of the ways you can support KB4C:
Fundraise & ride
Fundraise & come hang out
Volunteer at the in-person days of the event
Donate to the auction
Donate to the raffle
Become a sponsor
You can learn more about KB4C and all the available opportunities through the KB4C website.
