Often the first consideration is finding a charity whose mission has personal significance to you and where your donation will have a significant impact. It seems as though, everyone know someone close to them whose life has been changed by cancer. Why Me’s continued long-term success depends on the generosity of donors like yours.

The success of Why Me and it’s programs is due, in tremendous part, to the dedicated team of volunteers committed to the mission of providing love and support for families with childhood cancer. If you want to make a difference in the life of Why Me children and their families, there are many opportunities available to you.
