Holiday Adopt-A-Family Program

 

Our Holiday Adopt-a-Family was a huge success this year - Our Adoptors helped twenty-nine families (almost 150 people) with the holidays this year!

 

The annual Adopt-a-Family Program helps to ease the financial and emotional hardship of the holidays for childhood cancer families. Our organization has been blessed with the many donors, volunteers and sponsors who help us fulfill our mission for families who have been affected by childhood cancer. This programs is made possible entirely through volunteer community support!

 

 

 

 

"I can't thank your organization enough for your love and support during the holiday season. Christmas would not have been possible as we go through this ordeal…."
