About the Company
Here to Serve (www.HereToServe.org), a 501 (c) (3) charity, provides coordinated non-medical support programs and resources for the parent(s) with children battling cancer from the point of diagnosis throughout treatment. 60% of the cancer journey happens in the home without coordinated support. Here to Serve fills this healthcare gap.
We believe a child or young parent’s cancer diagnosis is a life-altering “journey.” For that reason, the care and support of families is required to prevent caregivers from losing their health, home, and job, and entering into bankruptcy. Therefore, we provide non-medical wraparound services to meet the daily living needs of families and caregivers navigating their child’s cancer.
Cancer is a three-legged stool, not two! Research, Treatment, AND Journey! The journey is as profound and consequential as cancer research and hospitals that treat cancer. Therefore, a family's cancer "journey" requires the same awareness, support, and funding as cancer research and hospitals that treat cancer. Of the billions of dollars of funding for cancer, only .001% is provided to families with children actually battling cancer!
Flexible work from home options available.
Here to Serve identifies and mobilizes people, charities, businesses and organizations to carry each other’s burdens during times of crisis, insuring guidance and assistance does not have to be sought after, but is offered freely by people and organizations that collaborate to compassionately respond to those navigating cancer. We seek to demystify the plethora of service organizations and to make them easily accessible, thereby easing the cancer journey.
Here to Serve provides assistance to families with children battling cancer. We:
Mobilize people and resources to meet the daily living requirements of families who do not qualify for government assistance.
Build online communities of support called Care Communities, that provide a network of services and financial assistance for families caring for their child or spouse battling cancer.
