There’s nothing quite like trying to move through a room in the dark: there’s uncertainty, risk, and fear. There’s also nothing like the uncertainty, risk, and fear that come with the diagnosis of childhood cancer. There needs to be someone to light the way, and this is where the Candlelighters for Childhood Cancer Foundation of Nevada comes in. They provide a comprehensive program to address the needs of the families suffering through childhood cancer: not the least of which is the need for guidance.
From financial assistance, to a week-long specially supervised camp (Camp Firefly); from parties to celebrate the end of treatment, to assistance with funeral costs; from travel aid, to counseling services; Candlelighters is providing a light during a very dark time.
None of us want to travel through a dark room, and none of us want these children to travel in darkness either. Fortunately, there’s a way for us to contribute to their guiding light. Support the Candlelighters Childhood Cancer Foundation of Nevada! There’s an easy option for online giving.
Visit their website to learn more about them, and visit their donation page through Nevada’s Big Give. Let’s share the light!
