Every Year, 17,000 Children are Diagnosed With Cancer. Every Second, Hope at Heart Beats for Them.
Founded in 2017, our initiative is focused on the longevity of support. We understand the cruel reality of childhood, adolescent, and young adult cancer and the domino effect it can have on a family. Because we know how long the journey can be, we strongly believe that no family should face these challenges alone.
Whether your loved one is starting their fight or preparing for their wings, we strive to uplift, empower, and guide families in Bexar County throughout every stage of the cancer journey. Our tailored programs address the unique needs of each family we serve, combining a variety of services from financial assistance and emotional counseling to social support initiatives and celebrations of life.
We’re Here Every Step of the Way
We offer tailored programs designed to support families at every stage of their journey with childhood cancer.
Survivor’s Way

Where victory is just the beginning, we honor their courage by providing a guiding light for the journey beyond treatment. Survivor’s Way offers the personalized support, resources, and compassion necessary to help brave children, adolescents, and young adults navigate life after cancer and reach their full potential.
Blessing’s Way
Blessing’s Way provides financial respite for families grappling with the overwhelming strain of cancer treatments. We offer assistance with medical bills, living expenses, and the endless financial burdens that can threaten to overwhelm families during their most vulnerable times.
