The Dragonfly Foundation supports patients and families impacted by pediatric cancer at a time when they need it the most.

The biggest issue the families face is black and white, life or death: This is what people know about cancer. But what you rarely hear about are all the attendant issues that weigh on the entire family for decades to come: the sleepless nights given over to worry; the relationships that fray and then snap due to grief or lack of support; the long-term psychological and physical aftereffects of treatment; the second and third mortgages taken out to stave off bankruptcy.

This is why we must remember to offer families a holistic, uncompromising, fighting chance at well-being, which is their urgent, passionate mission. The Dragonfly Foundation is a “Lifeline” – providing the distractions, support, and community Dragonflies didn’t Even Know They’d Need.
