Our Mission:
OUR MISSION – IMPROVE THE LIFE OF CHILDREN & WITH PEDIATRIC CANCER IN ISRAEL
Our mission to improve the life of children with pediatric cancer in Israel is based on three fundamentals: Happiness, Health, and Hope. . With these fundamentals in mind, we have created over 20 different programs to support families in their brave and emotional fight.
To fuel their happiness, we provide children and their families with opportunities to step away from the walls of the hospital and partake in various events. These events give both the families and their children the well-needed strength to fight their disease. Families can embark on a dream trip to Orlando and Los Angeles. Also available are family vacations to Eilat, attending summer camps with sporting activities, water park adventures, and exciting jeep tours. Furthermore, we help to bring programs for holidays like Purim, Sukkot, and Passover with a loving and supportive community that understands the daily challenges faced.
To create a smooth path to health, we provide emotional support to children and their families through professional psychological care and support group sessions. We offer financial assistance in purchasing critical medications and treatments families cannot afford, and logistical support in navigating the bureaucracy of the health care and social services systems — which, for many families, includes translating all documents and medical explanations to their native language.
WHAT WE DO:
We Have Inspiring Programs
We support children’s oncology wards in any way we can — from financing innovative treatments, to providing the funds necessary to open more positions, building gaming, recreational and computer rooms, and more.
To instill hope in the heart of every child, parent, and sibling affected by childhood cancer, we have built a one-of-a kind daycare in central Israel that is equipped to provide a sterile medically safe, socially enriching, and educational environment for the young children to grow and heal as their parents go to work. Through our public advocacy efforts, we are helping to build a brighter future for all families, by promoting government policy changes relating to health care costs, hospital conditions, and overall support for families with sick children.
