Family Resource Center
Our team offers multilingual, wrap-around services to families of children receiving medical treatment. Our comprehensive support includes access to shelter, food, mental health services, employment, childcare, and more. Additionally, we provide bedside assistance when a child is in the hospital, ensuring families have the resources and support they need during challenging times.
Ride With Emilio
We provide no-cost transportation for families seeking medical treatment for life-threatening conditions. We offer dependable and secure support, ensuring that no child misses life-saving treatments due to transportation barriers.
Emilio’s Snack Bags
We address food insecurity by providing free, hospital-approved snack bags to children in oncology units who have been fasting for chemotherapy. Each snack bag is thoughtfully planned and approved in collaboration with the hospital’s nutritionist, ensuring that children receive the vital nutrients and support they need during their treatment.
Creating for Hope
We offer one-on-one and group knitting and crocheting sessions for parents, guardians, and children at the hospital, offering a supportive therapeutic outlet. These sessions help build community, offer peer support, and decrease isolation, all while supporting mental health.
End of Life
There are no words to capture the heartache of a family facing the loss of a child. We offer financial support to help with burial expenses, offer emotional guidance, and protect families from predatory practices, ensuring they aren’t alone during this difficult time.
Healing through Nature
We offer outdoor activities for families with children in recent cancer remission, where the healing power of nature helps to boost emotional and physical strength. This experience fosters a supportive community, allowing families to connect, share their journey, heal and build a vital network of support.
