Live Like Luke helps families with kids who have lengthy hospital stays. While many of our applicants have childhood cancer, we have also helped families with Sickle Cell Disease, Bacterial Meningitis, Trisomy 21, complicated heart surgeries, organ transplants, and more.

Our goal is to help families spend more time together while their child is in the hospital.

Legs For Luke

One of our board members, Jordan, was on his way to running #1000MilesForLuke when he herniated a disc in his back. But that didn't stop his fundraising idea. In fact, it spurred him on to recruit others to join the campaign. Now the goal is to get 500 other people to join his efforts – that’s 1000 Legs for Luke!

That is a big goal, but we are dedicated to reach it even if it takes a few years.

Join the Team

Join us in our inaugural year and be one of the first #1000LegsForLuke! Get started by clicking the "Join a team!" button back at the top of the page

Being a part of our team will be fun and rewarding in itself, but the real purpose will be to bring awareness to Live Like Luke and the work we are doing to help families in the hospital. Help us get the word out and maybe bring in a few donations as well.

We will also be updating content on our Legs for Luke Blog
