Providing help and resources for Volusia County families when they need it most.
ABOUT US
The Childhood Cancer Foundation Inc. is a non-profit organization located in Volusia County, Florida whose mission is to ensure that no one is facing the diagnosis of childhood cancer alone and to provide financial support to families during the most difficult time in their lives.
WHAT WE DO
We help the families that are being crushed by childhood cancer. Most times, at least one parent loses their job. Single-parent families go from just getting by to barely making it. We do it because no parent should have to choose between gas money to get their child to chemotherapy or paying the electric bill.
As parents, uncles, aunts, sisters, and brothers, not one of us would want to have to face cancer alone. So with your help, we try to make sure no one has to.

A Word
From Our President
As President of this incredible organization, I want to personally thank you for taking the time to learn about our mission and the work we do. Our foundation was created to provide vital support to families in our community who are facing the unimaginable—a cancer diagnosis for their child.
We serve children from birth to age 19, and our focus is on easing the financial burdens families face during treatment. While insurance may cover medical bills, it’s often the day-to-day expenses—rent, mortgage, utilities, car repairs, insurance, and gas—that become overwhelming. That’s where we step in.
We do this work because no family should have to choose between paying their bills and caring for their sick child. And we’re only able to provide this support because of the generosity of people like you—our neighbors, local businesses, volunteers, and sponsors who care deeply and give freely.
This foundation exists because of our community, and we remain committed to serving it with compassion, integrity, and heart.
Thank you for standing with us. —Linda Hannon
