Cheers From Emily A 501(c)(3) Non-Profit organization with the goal of providing cheer and hope to children with cancer Emily felt that lengthy hospital stays are boring.

Cheers From Emily was founded by 10 year old Emily Del Vecchio as a not-for-profit corporation who's goal is to provide gifts to children with cancer. There weren't very many childrens channels on TV, and lying in bed for days on end wasn't much fun. During one of her stays she mentioned that she would like a netbook. iPads© didn't play all the games on the web, and she liked the feel of a real keyboard when typing. After receiving one, she thought that other kids would probably like to have one as well. It was then she decided that she would like to help out other kids just like her, and give them netbooks or other gifts that would make their stay in the hospital less boring too. Sadly, Emily passed away on May 11, 2012 at the age of 10. However, her spirit and kindness will continue to live on through this foundation. We will continue to strive to bring happiness and cheer to other children, just as she did during her all too brief lifetime.

Today is the last day of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month.

For kids in treatment, “last day” doesn’t mean the fight is over. It means another night in a hospital room, another round of chemo, another stretch of time away from school, friends, and home.

Cheers From Emily was started by Emily who knew that boredom and isolation make a hard fight even harder. Her mission was simple: put tablets, games, and a little joy in the hands of children with cancer so they can stay connected and feel like kids again.

This month we’re putting a little love in our hearts for Dolly Parton Children’s Hospital in Tennessee. 100% of this special fundraiser supports the kids and families there.

If you’ve been meaning to give, today is the day.

Emily was ten when she asked for something simple. The next kid in a hospital bed should not have to spend the day staring at the ceiling.

That wish became Cheers From Emily. Bright pink bags with tablets, games, and a reminder that somebody is in their corner. Now they are putting that same spirit behind Dolly Parton Children’s Hospital in Tennessee.

Dolly spent a lifetime putting love where children could feel it. This campaign, Put a little love in your heart, sends every dollar to the hospital that carries her name. Cheer. Pediatric care. Time that feels like being a kid again, not a patient.

A tablet is a classroom. A game cart is a hallway that does not feel like a hallway. A pink bag is proof they are not alone.

Dolly gave so much of her heart to children. In honor of her passing, are you willing to give $0.50 a week to bring joy to kids in the hospital?

Every cent raised goes toward the hospital wish list, purchasing toys, games, and entertainment to brighten the days of children undergoing treatment at Dolly's Children's Hospital.

Honoring Dolly Parton

Dolly Parton has spent a lifetime sharing joy, kindness, and light with the world. Through her music, generosity, and tireless work for children, she shows everyone what it truly means to give back from the heart. In that spirit, Cheers From Emily is launching a special fundraiser dedicated to honoring Dolly’s incredible legacy by giving directly to the children and families at East Tennessee Children's Hospital. (Dolly Parton Children's Hospital)

Every single dollar raised through this campaign will be used 100% to purchase essential comfort items, toys, activities, and care supplies directly for the hospital and the courageous kids being treated there.

When a child is facing a tough medical journey, small moments of happiness and comfort make a massive difference. Our goal is simple: deliver tangible cheer straight into their hands, lift their spirits on difficult days, and let these families know an entire community is standing firmly beside them.

Join us in celebrating Dolly’s heart and mission by helping us bring smiles, encouragement, and real relief to these amazing kids. Help us spread the word by sharing!

This young man is one of our recent recipients. Drew needed a bit of an upgrade for his cell phone, so he now has a much more recent iPhone. We hope it keeps him connected to his friends and family and provides him with some entertainment while undergoing treatment. We wish him and his family the very best and hope they enjoy the upcoming holiday season!

If you'd like to help others like Drew, your donations are greatly appreciated! https://www.CheersFromEmily.org

Let's band together to bring cheers to these amazing warriors! Our goal today is to fund 10 new tablets. Can you help us make it happen?
