Our Mission

 

Children’s Cancer Recovery Foundation improves the mental, social and emotional well-being of children with cancer and their families.

 

A national footprint allows the Foundation to make a difference in communities, large and small, providing a helping hand wherever needed. Children’s Cancer Recovery Foundation (CCRF) is an IRS recognized 501(c) (3) charitable organization, serving children under age 21. EIN Number 33-0418563.

 

The Foundation delivers gifts to thousands of children each year through the national Bear-Able Gift Program. Items such as board games, toys, crayons, coloring books, markers, video games, iTunes gift cards, puzzles, teddy bears, craft kits… all sorts of things that make children smile and laugh… are distributed to hospitals across the country. The Bear-Able Gift Program is the largest supplier of gifts to children with cancer in North America.

​

The team at CCRF recognizes the importance of the mental health of the entire family at the time of cancer diagnosis and during treatment which led us to the expansion of the Bear-Able Gifts program.  The program will now offer gifts for the entire family during their challenging times providing items such as, but not limited to, local donations of products, services, meals, games, lists of resources, and more!
