Carsyn Neille Foundation Inaugural Pickleball Tournament - OKC

Get ready for an unforgettable evening of pickleball and philanthropy at the newest annual event hosted by the Carsyn Neille Foundation - Executive Teen Board. On September 21, from 4:00-7:00 PM, players of all levels, from social enthusiasts to competitive champions, will converge at Chicken N Pickle - Oklahoma City for a night of friendly competition and community support.

By participating, you're not only enjoying the thrill of the game but also making a meaningful impact—proceeds will directly benefit children receiving Comfort Kits at OU Children’s Hospital and other pediatric facilities nationwide, providing essential comfort and support during their treatment journey.

Why Comfort Kits are Critical

Providing Comfort, Care, and Hope to Children Battling Cancer

Comfort Kits play a vital role in the lives of childhood cancer families. When families first connect with us—whether through learning about our mission or reaching out directly—they begin to realize how our work can impact their daily lives. The kits not only offer immediate support, but they also introduce families to important information about reducing their toxic load and creating healthier, more sustainable living environments for their children.

Once families receive a Comfort Kit, they start becoming more aware of the environmental toxins, harmful ingredients, and chemicals in their homes. They learn how to make better choices for their children and themselves by partnering with us to create cleaner, non-toxic spaces. The journey begins with a simple kit but leads to long-lasting changes that support the child’s well-being during cancer treatment.
