OUR SERVICES
NC4K offers three main pillars of support to childhood cancer families in Ohio:
-
Financial Support
is distributed in response to family requests for payment towards their mortgage or rent, utilities, groceries, and gas. This type of funding means that rather than worrying about keeping the lights on or filling up the gas tank, families can focus their energy on fighting cancer with their child.
-
Emotional Support
is given in the form of a family gift, intended to lift their spirits as they navigate the highs and lows of their childhood cancer journey. Unique to the family’s circumstances, these gifts include toys, arts and crafts, and gift cards to order takeout, allowing families to feel a sense of comfort and normalcy during their hospital stay.
-
Events for Play
are opportunities for families to spend the day together and have fun, surrounded by a community of people who understand the challenges they are facing. During these events, families can be completely comfortable knowing that as they share in a light-hearted, joyful experience, their child is just like everyone else in the room.
