This is caregiving during a childhood cancer diagnosis. 💔 Today is National Caregivers Day. If you have ever been a caregiver, you know how heartbreaking and exhausting it can be. Today, we want to recognize all the compassionate family members who have stepped up to provide medical, emotional, and life-giving support to loved ones. We see you. If you know a caregiver, consider reaching out to them to show your support today. Here are some ways to support a family going through a medical journey or a cancer diagnosis: https://hubs.la/Q043-J_40 #NationalCaregiversDay #ChildhoodCancerAwareness #ChildhoodCancerCharity #CancerSupportResource

Someone asked a GREAT question on our Instagram today, so we are sharing the answer here, too. What are the pros of monthly giving? The first video shared highlighted the ease and ability to automate the payment. This reason is different, though... give it a watch.

The news of James Van Der Beek's passing is a sad one for those in the cancer awareness space. 💔 Several Pinky Swear supporters met James at Kansas City's Big Slick event in 2022. The event supports one of our hospital partners, Children's Mercy. James encouraged Pinky Swear to remain true to our mission and values. He noted the importance of authenticity in our tender work with families. When James was going through treatment for his own cancer journey the last few years, he was vocal about the hidden financial burdens that accompany cancer. James understood our mission and was so loved by everyone in his life. We light a candle in his memory. 🕯️ Amanda Wilkinson Jared Wilkinson Tracy Jones Clint Jones Lance Larson #BigSlick #KansasCity #PinkySwearFoundation #HelpingKidswithCancer

All in all, Jade has endured 14 rounds of chemotherapy and 31 radiation treatments at a hospital in Utah, seven hours from her home in Nevada. All she wanted to be doing was dancing with her friends, not facing Ewing Sarcoma at nine years old. 💔 Childhood cancer is unfair. The Pinky Swear community was there to help Jade's family with gas and groceries to help with their travel to receive treatment. Learn more about how you can help more families like Jade's. 🔗 https://hubs.la/Q043nKFg0 #AllStarJade #Dance #EwingSarcoma #ChildhoodCancerCharity #HelpingKidswithCancer #PinkySwearFoundation
