Childhood Cancer - Programs

Our Programs

To create victories for Canadian children with cancer through investment in
national, collaborative, lifesaving research, empowering education and
community programs.

Empower Packs

Childhood Cancer Canada sends emPower Packs to families in Canada whose child is newly diagnosed with cancer. These emPower Packs provide families with information and inspiration to cope with what comes next. emPower Packs are specialized based on the child’s interest and needs.

Amazing Adventures

Amazing Adventures helps children with cancer feel stronger, empowered, and inspired to battle their illness. Every Amazing Adventure helps create joy and respite to children whose lives are filled with so much uncertainty. These adventures may include tickets to concerts, sporting events, and theatre productions, invitations to local child-focused venues, as well as inclusion in our special events provided by our generous donors.

Survivor Scholarship

The Childhood Cancer Canada Scholarship Program is open to young adult cancer survivors. Survivor Scholarships support post-secondary academic aspirations and recognize the personal triumphs of students who have survived childhood cancer. Applications will be available for both the $1500 general scholarship and the $5000 TEVA Scholarship for those pursuing education in the medical, health and pharmaceutical fields. Registration is now open from now until May 29th, 2020.

Sibling Support

When a child is diagnosed with cancer it affects the whole family. Sibling programs provide support and resources. Siblings are invited to join Amazing Adventures with their families where available and may receive items in the emPower Pack.

The Benevolent Fund

The Benevolent Fund supports families with much needed financial assistance to help cover the costs of their child’s funeral. Childhood Cancer Canada will fund up to $1000 in expenses to the family’s funeral service provider for final arrangements and memorial services.

Words cannot express how grateful I am for the CCC scholarship towards my undergraduate studies in Biomedical science.

I was diagnosed with Wilm's Tumor at the age of 5. I am now 21. The CCC Scholarship has helped me to afford transportation and has also bought the textbooks that I will use to graduate.
