About Families of Children With Cancer
Families of Children with Cancer, Inc. was organized in 1974 by parents and healthcare professionals who saw a need for a support group for families who have a child that has been diagnosed with cancer. Since the first inception of the group, they have grown to be much more than a “support” group.
Today, Families of Children With Cancer, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit charitable organization supporting families who have a child that has been diagnosed with cancer in Northeastern Wisconsin & Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Their mission is to provide advocacy, education, emotional support, financial support and hope to those families.
They receive no federal or state funding and rely solely on donations from private benefactors, corporate sponsors, community organizations, foundations & fundraisers. No salaries are paid and all money directly benefits Northeast Wisconsin & Upper Peninsula families of children with cancer.
