The Problem

Children’s cancer is an ongoing issue that has affected millions of families. Most children will feel a mix of being anxious or afraid at some stages during their illness. For many children with cancer, their life changes drastically. Going through tests, doctor's appointments, and treatment become part of their daily life.

Our Plan

Books for Change is an ongoing project that focuses on providing books to hospitals. When we read, not only are others amplifying memory and empathy, but research has provided that it makes others feel better and more positive as well. Scientific research has shown that reading has some amazing health benefits, including helping with depression and cutting stress.
