Our crew has had many amazing opportunities to work with, and support, organizations that are making a difference in the lives of children and families fighting cancer. This September, in honor of Childhood Cancer Awareness month, consider donating to one (or all!) of these incredible local groups.
Camp Rainbow
provides free camping experiences to children undergoing treatment for, and survivors of, cancer and blood-related diseases and disorders. They provide a recreational and nurturing environment for campers and their families, where the children can create positive memories, build self-esteem, make new friends and are relieved of the everyday stresses caused by their illness.
Make-A-Wish Missouri
believes a wish experience can be a game-changer for a child with a life-threatening medical condition. Wishes impact everyone involved – wish kids, volunteers, donors, sponsors, medical professionals and communities. Just the act of making a wish come true can give a child courage, bring parents joy, and inspire volunteers.
Friends of Kids With Cancer
is devoted to enriching the daily lives of children undergoing treatment for, and survivors of, cancer and blood-related diseases. Their mission is to provide these children and their families with the educational, emotional, and recreational support needed as a result of the long hours of chemotherapy, illness and isolation.
