Cancer Awareness & Prevention

Glimmer of Hope
The Glimmer of Hope Foundation shows children facing cancer that they are seen, strong, and beautiful by gifting bald dolls and other symbols of encouragement. Their work brings comfort and HOPE to kids and families navigating childhood cancer—reminding them that their identity and worth are not defined by illness or appearance.
