When a parent is diagnosed with cancer, it can be a very scary time for not only the patient but also for his or her children. While resources for cancer patients are abundant, there are far fewer resources for kids dealing with the stress of one parent being sick, the other being stressed, and the uncertainty of what lies ahead.
Help with Hope’s goal is to support every child whose parent has been affected by cancer with compassion and understanding. This is accomplished through online support groups and care packages (containing a fluffy, comforting stuffed animal, journal or coloring book and a book on coping with their parent’s cancer).
COVID UPDATE
Due to COVID, there has been a delay in funding and in the shipping of care packages. Please consider donating so we can continue to support these children and families.
