You can make a difference for families in East Texas
Your donations provide essential support to East Texas families battling childhood cancer. Together, we can ease their burden and bring hope during their toughest times.
Here’s how we help families during their most challenging times
1. Identify families with needs
The first step in our process is to identify families in need through the dedicated social workers at local hospitals. These professionals are on the front lines, interacting with families daily and know their most pressing needs. By collaborating with them, we can ensure that our support reaches the right people at the right time.
2. Establish relationship
The second step is to establish a meaningful relationship with the family, in order to understand their unique situation and needs. By building trust and rapport, we can create a supportive environment where families feel comfortable sharing their challenges. We have the unique perspective as a family that has been through EXACTLY what they are going through as oncology parents. This connection is crucial for tailoring our assistance to best fit their circumstances.
3. Provide support
Through generous support by people like yourself, Sophie's Friends can now offer:
- Financial Assistance to cover medical expenses, transportation, and daily necessities
- Emotional Support to help families navigate the emotional challenges they face
- Physical Goods to keep children families engaged and uplifted during hospital stays, including games, books, and family-friendly activities
Now families can focus on their child and situation, without the added stress of financial burdens.
