KC Crowns for Courage

Helping Deliver Joy, Confidence, and Encouragement to Children at Children's Mercy Kansas City

At Tiara4Harper, we believe every child deserves to feel seen, valued, beautiful, and brave — especially during life’s hardest moments.

Through our KC Crowns for Courage initiative, we are partnering with local businesses, organizations, and community supporters across the Kansas City area to help donate tiaras to children receiving care at Children’s Mercy.

What began as a deeply personal mission in honor of Harper has already grown into something larger than we ever imagined. Thanks to the incredible generosity of Local 53 and individual supporters, more than 127 tiaras have already been donated to children facing difficult medical journeys.

Now, together with our community, we hope to double that giving and continue creating moments of joy, confidence, imagination, and encouragement for children who need it most.

What Is KC Crowns for Courage?

KC Crowns for Courage is a community-driven giving initiative created to provide donated tiaras and encouragement gifts to children receiving care through Children’s Mercy.

Each tiara represents more than a gift.

It represents:

  • Confidence during difficult days

  • Imagination during uncertainty

  • Encouragement during treatment

  • A reminder that every child deserves to feel special

Every donation helps create meaningful moments for children and families navigating challenges no child should ever have to face alone.

Our Giving Goal

Our next community goal is to donate:

100 MORE TIARAS

with the help of local Kansas City businesses, organizations, families, and supporters.

Together, we can continue building something beautiful — one crown at a time.

Why This Matters

For many children, hospital stays can feel overwhelming, isolating, and frightening.

Sometimes the smallest gestures become the moments that shine brightest.

A tiara may seem simple —
but to a child facing difficult treatments, it can represent imagination, confidence, joy, strength, and hope.

At Tiara4Harper, we believe every princess deserves a tiara.

And every child deserves to feel courageous.
