The holiday season often comes with many financial challenges, and it is only worse when your child is facing a life-threatening diagnosis. Our Wes' Wish Toy Drive allows us to set up a family shopping event each year for families of the CHKD Cancer & Blood Disorder Clinic and pediatric cancer families at surrounding treatment facilities. There, parents and guardians can shop for all of their children's gifts free of charge, gift wrapping included.
In our experience, teens and tweens are oftentimes overlooked, but they are just as deserving. This year our Wes' Wish Family Holiday Shopping Expo has over 170 children who will benefit and more are signing up by the day. Currently, 80 of them are teens and tweens. Help us put hope back in the holidays by sponsoring a tween or teen to make sure that they also have gifts under the tree.
Sponsor a teen: $100 donation
or make a contribution of any size. NO amount is too small.
Our Annual Wes' Wish Toy Drive was started by Wes himself when he was first diagnosed with neuroblastoma at the age of 5. He was worried that the children in clinic fighting with him would not have toys for Christmas. He asked his mom if he could donate some of his own toys.
And this is where it all began. One boy with a loving, kind, and generous heart wanting to give back. We now continue his legacy in his memory.
