For Families
Through the LeJeune Whole Family Wellbeing Programs, we support families fighting childhood cancer.
At CCRF, we work to amplify the stories of families experiencing childhood cancer. We understand that childhood cancer is a whole-family diagnosis, which is why The LeJeune Whole Family Wellbeing Programs put children and their families at the forefront. We are dedicated to funding resources and experiences that help kids and families as they navigate the difficult experience of cancer treatment and survivorship.
Your experience can create lasting change for childhood cancer research.

Share your story.
Sharing your experience of childhood cancer can raise awareness for what is needed in the world of childhood cancer research. There are many different ways to share your story, and our outreach coordinators (who are also cancer parents) can work with you to find what you’re most comfortable with.
We provide creative opportunities for kids experiencing cancer.

Big Dreams
We partner with musician and artist James Orrigo to provide creative experiences for kids fighting cancer. James uses music, animation and virtual reality technology to bring kids’ imaginations to life.

C.C. Bear
Cuddly C.C. Bear (Cure Cancer Bear) is available to those who need him most. Children with cancer and other life-threatening diseases, as well as their siblings, can receive a free teddy bear. Just fill out the request form.
