Inspiring HOPE and healing by keeping families together, when it matters the most.
Along Comes Hope® has helped hundreds of children and families through financial assistance with travel for treatment, creative emotional support programs, advocacy work for policy changes, awareness and education. These programs and services would not be possible without the generous support of our donors:
Often families are separated during cancer treatments, because the best medical care may not be available close to home. They don’t always have the financial means to receive treatment at the hospital that will provide the best opportunity for survival for their child. That’s where Along Comes Hope® steps in to help. It’s our goal to help all families remain by their children’s sides during treatment. From airfare and lodging to gas and grocery gift cards, we do all we can to support families and make them as comfortable as possible when having to travel for medical treatments.
We are grateful to our generous donors who currently provide families with various programs that support children facing cancer, their parents and the siblings to help sustain their spirits during this long journey. With continued funding, we hope to expand these programs and add more services in the future to best support families. Here are a few of the programs we’ve created based upon family needs we have identified:
Our advocacy work focuses on advancing research and policies to improve the diagnosis, treatment, care and survivorship of children and adolescents with cancer, as well as enhancing public awareness and community involvement. As an active planning committee member and sponsor of CureFest D.C. in Washington, DC, a national and annual event, Along Comes Hope® is committed to raising awareness and funds to improve the survivorship of childhood cancer. We also collaborate with college student groups in bringing awareness to the young adult community. We are currently leading a state initiative for a Childhood Cancer Awareness License Plate approved for California.
Help families & children get the care they need while they fight cancer In their lives.
