All-Star Nora Post 2.1-1Today is National Caregivers Day. If you have ever been a caregiver, you know how heartbreaking and exhausting it is. Caregivers in any scenario carry the brunt of responsibility for another's life. They are thrown into long lists of medical terms, medications, and providing comfort for loved ones as they fight for their life. They rarely get a break and are in a constant state of worry for their loved one.

In the childhood cancer space, caregivers are most often a parent. The day they receive the news that their child has cancer, their world is turned upside down. Parents leave their jobs for bedsides to be with their child.

No parent should ever have to go through this. By providing financial support through Pinky Swear Foundation, we aim to take some of the financial burdens off of caregivers, so they have one less thing to worry about.

Today, we want to recognize all the compassionate family members who have stepped up to provide medical, emotional, and life-giving support to loved ones. We see you. 💙

If you are looking for ways to support family or friends who are caregivers, consider these things.
