Fundraisers

DuckIn addition to the donations received by our many generous supporters, the Foundation for Positively Kids holds several fundraisers each year designed to help achieve our goals.

The Annual Duck Derby is a Las Vegas tradition, and Positively Kids signature fundraiser. Proceeds from the event provide funding for programs and services benefiting Las Vegas' medically dependent and critically ill children and their families, and help make our community a better place to live.

The business community, non-profit organizations and individuals alike all join in to make this event a truly memorable experience. You too can help make the lives of Las Vegas' medically dependent children more hopeful.
Be a part of the fun and a part of the solution.
