Support organization

Children's Cancer Family Foundation of Northeast Wisconsin

Children's Cancer Family Foundation of Northeast Wisconsin provides financial assistance for pediatric-cancer medical costs, treatment travel, ordinary living expenses, and added educational needs. Eligible families must live in one of 18 published Northeast Wisconsin counties, and the application requires diagnosis and expense documentation appropriate to the request. First-year support is capped at $3,000 per family per calendar year, while later-year requests are capped at $1,500 and depend on financial need. The foundation also hosts free events throughout the year for recipient families to relax and connect, although no current occurrence is listed. Its public Additional Resources directory links families to outside transportation, camps, peer, financial, Medicaid, and bereavement programs that require separate verification.
