The  We Cancerve Movement, Inc.

Hello Families, School & Other Youth Groups,

We're glad you're here! This organization was created by a first grader and a group of her elementary school friends in 2012 to bring happiness to area sick, foster and homeless children.  The projects We Cancerve has sponsored, from the beginning, are all created by youth for youth. Our focus is on giving kids lasting memories and products they need most so we ask people who share our values for helping to create those lasting memories to donate the products we need. We started this organization with the belief that many of us had unwanted new or gently-used toys, books and clothes that other children would be happy to receive. We learned that not only did homeless, sick and foster children love our new and like-new gifts and how we packaged them, we learned many other children believed in our work and wanted to help.  Because of Covid-19, we had to change to accommodate public health concerns; changing rules of the organizations we serve and the shifting availability of our in-house team changed some of our original program models. We're proud to report that change doesn't scare us; we adapted to make sure we can still serve our friends who are mostly in shelters, hospitals and group homes.  We now only accept brand new books, toys and clothes but we still partner with youth groups and others to bring happiness to children.

This page is designed to help you - today's youth - better understand how you as an individual, a family or a team can get involved and help us to bring happiness to homeless, sick and foster children.
