On April 26, we had our very first virtual Play It Back Songwriting Workshop!!

The workshop was led by the incredible Lauren Christy, Graham Edwards, Desmond Child and Shelly Peiken.

Our artists had a chance to work with these professional songwriters. It was an incredibly inspiring session filled with generosity, insight, and creative energy.

We’re so very grateful for all of the songwriters for coming out and supporting our young people in their creative endeavors

Today is our Day of Giving! igfn.us/form/drzU1Q Every year, 90,000 teens and young adults hear the words no one should ever hear: you have cancer. You can change what happens next: the support they receive, the community that surrounds them, and the hope they're given. Every dollar you give today is doubled to help more young people navigate cancer, thanks to a match from our partners at First Citizens Bank. Imagine a world where every young person with cancer gets the care and support they need. Now, help us make it possible. Donate today at https://igfn.us/form/drzU1Q

Thank you to First Citizens Bank for partnering with us to make this grant possible!

When you are in the hospital for cancer treatment, you get to know the people around you, the people taking care of you. Nurses are certainly those people and they can be absolutely amazing in more ways than one. We are so grateful to all of the oncology nurses out there taking care of everyone facing cancer.
