About Us

Childhood Cancer Society

Childhood Cancer Society (CCS) is a volunteer-run 501(c)(3) non-profit dedicated to helping families who are struggling with childhood cancer. From financial support to providing gifts/wish grants, our efforts support these families to maintain a mindset conducive to healing.

We continue to help spread awareness and ultimately fulfill our mission through multiple initiatives: our TeddyGram Program, Adventure Ted Chats, Adventure Ted Chronicles, endless volunteering opportunities, and more!

My life's work is to touch the lives of as many people as possible and to show those who are struggling that some things can't be quantified—the power of hope is one of those things.
