Bryanna's Love

Bryanna was admitted into Children’s National Medical Center in Washington DC on August 1st, 2016 where she stayed for the duration of her battle with ETP-ALL.

Our Mission is to share Bryanna's Love through our programs with families battling childhood cancer through
our Give Kids a snuggle, sibling love, home to care and Yourh ambassador programs. Bryanna’s Love was founded in honor of Bryanna Kitchen, who was diagnosed with Early T-cell Precursor Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ETP-ALL) only 3 weeks after her 9th birthday. Bryanna passed away only 3 sho

rt months later on October 24th, 2016. One of the few things that gave her the strength to smile during this time was the many stuffed animals and the blanket she received and of which stayed on her bed throughout treatment. It is with this experience and love, that Bryanna’s Love will offer the following to the children and their families battling childhood cancer. We are 100% Donation Based 501c(3) Childhood Cancer Foundation and ALL donations go towards supporting families battling childhood cancer.

• We offer comfort and support to families whose child is facing a cancer diagnosis and are undergoing treatment in a hospital setting. We will do this primarily by providing children battling cancer on the oncology units a soft stuffed animal to snuggle, and a blanket to cuddle. In addition, we will offer their families a cozy blanket for comfort as they encourage their child every day. All stuffed animals and blankets are collected through our Give Kids A Snuggle Program.
• It is our mission to become a resource to help these children and families make special memories in honor of their sibling after the hardest battle of all of their lives through our Sibling Love Program. Through this program, we facilitate outings for the siblings of a child actively fighting cancer and siblings who lost a sibling to pediatric cancer so that they can continue to make special memories. We do this by funding outings to neighborhood restaurants, amusement parks, sports events, movies, shopping and anything else the children wishes to do for a day. Bryanna’s Love will work with the family to coordinate outings and will provide the financial support to make those outings extra special for the children, as they try to make new memories that will hopefully give them a moment of respite from the hardship of cancer and loss.
• Through our Home To Care Program, we facilitate and help support families that need to travel to their child’s cancer treatment or clinical trials that are far from home. We have partnered with PALs to provide transportation and help facilitate ground transportation, and when needed lodging and food expense. We strive to fill the missing piece that so many families are faced with during the hardest time of their lives.

Folks, we need our community's support to help one of our warrior families. This family has gone through so much and now they are on borrowed time with their child.

We are working with the family to bring up Reggie Rice to make their daughter's 9th birthday party one of the best one she has ever had. Also, we are trying to fund an amazing and memorable backyard movie night to make memories together when leaving the house is no longer possible.

Folks, this amazing little girl and her family have fought cancer with so much positivity for most of her life. They need our community now more than ever.

See my video below for more details.

All donations will be applied specifically to this family.
We truly appreciate your help making this possible.

Today would have been Bryanna's18th birthday. She is not here to celebrate her 18th birthday with us today. That’s what cancer does. It takes what you love and hugs it close, so that you can’t.
BUT
As much as my heart breaks, as much as I ache to hold my girl one more time...

I am so very very thankful for the 9 beautiful years that we were given with you. Please consider doing something silly and happy today. We'd love to see your picture of being silly in honor of Bryanna.

Our Story

In memory of Bryanna Kitchen who lost her battle to Leukemia (ETP-ALL) on October 24, 2016, Bryanna’s Love is working to give back to the children at Children’s National Hospital in Washington DC, where Bryanna was treated from the beginning to the end of her battle with cancer and other Children's Hospitals around the USA. With that, our mission to make a difference in the lives of children and their families battling cancer by: The Here and Now: Donating new stuffed animals and soft cozy blankets to offer snuggles and comfort during their hospital stays through our Give Kids a Snuggle Campaign. The Aftermath: As we grow we would like to offer respite trips to bereaved siblings and families of pediatric cancer patients. It is our hope that we can offer these brave siblings the opportunity to make memories in honor of their sibling and to to make sure that they know that they matter. The Future: Help fund ETP-ALL research. Currently, there is very little research and no targeted protocol/treatment. We hope to help change that so that more kids survive this form of Leukemia. It is our hope that together we can help more kids come home.

Bryanna had a way of touching people, animals and the world without ever knowing it. She continues to touch people and spread love to people she has never met. It is with this love that we would like Bryanna’s love to make a difference in the lives of the kids and their families trying to battle cancer.
