Childhood cancer changes everything

Together, we can help kids with cancer and their families with financial support.
Donate now.

Bring light to a dark journey.

Childhood cancer often means long hospital stays, an intense treatment schedule, parents taking unpaid leave from work, and a family’s world turned upside down.

Make a gift now to help lift the financial burden of housing, food, and transportation costs off of families as they navigate childhood cancer.

“This is the part of cancer you can’t plan for. The emotional scars will leave a mark on every member of the family, as well as trying to keep up with regular chores, tasks, and appointments. Without help, we would not have been able to survive. I don’t have words for how much financial support helps."

No one plans for cancer

Every time a family hears the words "your child has cancer," they are forced to make hard decisions. They ask themselves: "Do I keep working while having to take large amounts of time off for treatments and hospital stays? If I quit my job to take care of them will we survive financially?"
Medical bills can be delayed, but rent is due, bills still come, and food is a necessity. Families facing childhood cancer need help with everyday expenses. Pinky Swear Foundation provides financial support for housing, food, and transportation so families can focus on their child.
