BIG DREAMS. BRIGHT FUTURES

Health Sciences Scholarship

The Health Sciences Scholarship supports childhood cancer survivors pursuing post‑secondary studies in health‑related fields. Designed for upper‑year students, the scholarship recognizes that lived experience with childhood cancer brings powerful perspective, empathy, and insight to careers in health, research, and care.

GIVING CHILDREN A REASON TO SMILE

EmPower Pack

Our custom EmPower Packs are designed to spark joy and excitement for children who are newly diagnosed with cancer. Each one is filled with technology and custom items based on each child’s age and interests — so they feel cared for and connected to friends and family when they need support the most.

Compassionate Care Emergency Funds

When a child is diagnosed with cancer, many families experience financial strain. Our Compassionate Care program offers financial assistance to families with children undergoing cancer treatment. It covers necessary out-of-pocket expenses, letting families focus on care and recovery without the stress of additional costs.
