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.
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 from entering bankruptcy. Therefore, we provide non-medical home services to meet the daily living needs of families and caregivers navigating cancer.
Cancer is not only research and hospitals, but it is also the JOURNEY! Of the billions of dollars donated to cancer, only .001% goes to families with children battling cancer!
Flexible work from home options available.
