From the Family
What is the Caden Project?
We started Compassionate Hearts For Kids, Inc. a 501(c)(3) non- profit organization after the heartbreak we endured with both of our boys.
- Our boys, Caleb & Caden, were both born with a genetic immune disorder and had to go through a bone marrow transplant in order to survive.
- Living in and out of the hospital for so long, we witnessed first hand the turmoil these kids and families go through and wanted to give back to them and show them someone cares.
- Our younger son Caden went through his transplant in 2013 and was given a teddy bear by a close friend. That bear comforted him and became his friend.
- The Caden Project was then born to help bring the same comfort Caden received to other kids through our "Caden" teddy bears.
"THANK OUR LOCAL HEROES"
2022 cornmaze
We are honored to reveal our 2022 Maze Design!
We had a contest to get all of your wonderful ideas for this year’s maze and the winner was Aliceson Powell Sikes! Her idea to honor our local heroes was exactly what our hearts were aligned to do! We love our local heroes and we hope seeing this will make them feel so special and bring awareness to the amazing jobs they do everyday.
This also gave us a chance to honor Officer Josh Moyers, badge # 1205, who we will always remember as an example of what a real hero was to our community.
We are getting the farm ready now and can’t wait to see you out here soon!
