What can $360 do for a child with cancer?

  • $360 can help pay one or two utility bills during the hot summer for a family that has a child with cancer.
  • $360 can cover gas and car maintenance to get a child to and from treatment.
  • $360 can pay for a birthday party for a child that either missed their party because they were in the hospital, or just because their parents can’t afford the celebration.
  • $750 can cover basic needs for a family battling cancer.
  • $800 can cover sperm banking for a teenage male to hopefully secure his future of having children.
  • $1000 can alleviate the stress of burying a child with cancer and allow you to bury them with the grace and dignity they deserve.
