What it says it does
Everlasting Hope Childhood Cancer Mission supports pediatric cancer patients who do not have cancer-fighting treatments available in their local community. Our first supported community in Cebu, Philippines, provides free shelter through our home away from home, nutrition and medical support, transportation to medical care, and emotional and spiritual care. Through our programs and services, we help alleviate the barriers that hinder children from accessing the care that they need as families are reminded that they are not alone. We have come alongside more than 350 children and their families during the most difficult time of their lives and have helped to lighten their burden and most importantly give them hope.
