🎗️ September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. 💛
This month, we’re doing something a little different.
We will still be sharing facts about childhood cancer, but we also want to introduce you to the reason those facts matter: our Power Kids.
Throughout September, we’ll be sharing the stories of several incredible children and families in our JIPK community—the diagnoses they never expected, the treatments they’ve endured, the milestones they’ve fought for, and the ways childhood cancer has changed their lives.
Because childhood cancer is more than a statistic.
It’s a child missing school for chemotherapy.
It’s siblings spending days apart.
It’s parents learning medical terminology they never wanted to know.
It’s surgeries, scans, hospital stays, side effects, fear, hope, grief, and celebration.
Behind every gold ribbon is a child with a name, a family, and a story worth knowing. 💛
Power Kid families, we’d love to see your kiddos today in the comments! Drop a photo of your Power Kid and tell us their name, diagnosis, and how old they were when they were diagnosed. 🎗️
Whether they’re in treatment, celebrating survivorship, or forever loved and remembered, every Power Kid’s story matters.
Let’s fill these comments with the faces behind the gold ribbon. 💛🎗️
