Wellness for Patients
Our program offers patients under 25 currently being treated for pediatric sarcomas and brain tumors in hospitals in Washington and Oregon the opportunity to request a wellness box filled with items to support their well-being.
We're here to help provide a well-rounded approach.
We recognize this complexity of cancer treatment. By delivering wellness boxes to patients in hospitals across Oregon and Washington, we provide a touch of comfort and care beyond traditional therapy. Additionally, we extend our support to families navigating the intricate oncology systems, ensuring they have the resources and guidance needed during these challenging times.
Part of the Sam Day Foundation mission statement states that we facilitate “wellness-centered support and experiences so kids with cancer can survive and live well.” One way we do this is with our Wellness Box program. Wellness boxes are available to cancer patients 25 and under in the Pacific Northwest being currently being treated for pediatric sarcomas and brain tumors. If this is you, please fill out the form we will get a box to you.
