We got the Ride for a Child team together one last time for the 2026 season! 💛🚴

Thank you to everyone who joined us for our Wrap Party last Tuesday!

We had a great time catching up and celebrating all the hard work that made this year’s ride possible.

This year was a record-breaking year for Ride for a Child, with over $280,000 raised in support of Candlelighters! 🎉

Thank you again to everyone who made this incredible season possible. We can’t wait to see you next year as we celebrate 25 years of Ride for a Child in 2027!

Know someone who might be interested in riding in 2027? Sign up for the Ride for a Child newsletter on our website: https://candlelightersoregon.org/support/ride-for-a-child/ride-for-a-child-news-sign-up/

Help us restock our Home to Hospital bags! 🏥💛

We're running low on some of the supplies for our Home to Hospital care bags and need your help to replenish our stock!

For many families, a routine checkup can unexpectedly become a long hospital stay.

Candlelighters' Home to Hospital bags provide daily essentials and small comforts to families in the hospital to help with their needs both in the hospital and on-the-go.

All supplies for our bags can be purchased through our Amazon Wishlist: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/250AI98WHVZ9B?ref_=wl_share

Dext Capital is hosting a blood drive in support of Candlelighters! 💛🩸

Blood donations are needed every day to help maintain a stable blood supply and ensure patients have access to lifesaving blood products.

For many children with pediatric cancer, blood transfusions are a vital part of treatment, recovery, and continued care.

From 9am to 2pm on Tuesday, October 27 Dext Capital will be hosting a blood drive with Red Cross Cascades Region at their Lake Oswego office 🏥

📍Dext Capital, 5500 Meadows Rd, Lake Oswego, OR 97035
📅 Tuesday, October 27, 9am-2pm

Creativity was in full bloom at our Mom's Night Out event!🌻💛

Our Mom's group got together at the Candlelighters office last week for a guided painting session by Candlelighters volunteer, Debbie.

We painted sunflowers, a flower that represents strength, happiness, and resilience–as they track the movement of the sun to grow and thrive ☀️

Thank you so much to Debbie for lending her creativity and leading this painting session!

Candlelighters’ Mom’s group offers a space for moms who have a child diagnosed with cancer to connect. To join, visit the affinity group page on our website: https://candlelightersoregon.org/families/affinity-groups/

Packing with purpose at First Citizen's Bank! 📦💛

We stopped by First Citizens Bank to share about Candlelighters while building "Family Night in a Box" kits with their team, full of everything families need for a fun game or movie night.

Thank you so much to First Citizens Bank and Jonathan Enriquez for welcoming us into their office and creating these fun kits for Candlelighters families!

Our "Pack with Purpose" program brings a hands-on employee engagement opportunity directly to your office.

Let us bring "Pack with Purpose" to your office by reaching out via the "Contact Us" page on our website or sending us a DM!

“I don’t care if I lose my hair, as long as I’m alive.”

In 2022, Katia learned that she had Leukemia, a diagnosis that would alter the course of her and her family’s life.

Hear from Katia and her family as they share about their experience with pediatric cancer, and how Candlelighters was a source of support and community throughout the journey.

Thank you OHSU Doernbecher Children's Hospital for inviting us to their Doernbecher Picnic! 💛

Each year, Doernbecher brings together patients, survivors, families, and staff from its pediatric hematology oncology department for a fun outdoor picnic while highlighting local resources.

We had so much fun tabling, enjoying games and activities, and saying hi to some familiar faces!

Thank you again to OHSU Doernbecher for all that they do to support Candlelighters and the families we serve 🫶

Creating core memories with Oregon State Football 🦫🎗️

We were so excited to be invited by the OSU Beavers to be part of their Beaver Brave program, which gives kids facing medical challenges the chance to spend a special day with the team.

Candlelighters kids Zach and Nate joined the Beavers at their practice, getting a behind the scenes look at their facilities and running drills with the team!

Thank you to the OSU Beavers for welcoming Zach and Nate and making this experience possible. We’re so grateful to be part of such a special program.

Go Beavs! 🧡🏈

What does childhood look like when your sibling has cancer?

Constant appointments, hospital stays, and changes to family routines can make siblings feel like their lives look different from everyone else’s.

What's one thing you wish more people understood about the sibling experience?
