Sarah’s Comfort Kit started with a deep desire to help children battling cancer and other life-threatening condition to have something to smile about. Something that will help make their stay a little more comfortable. Something that might give them a little hope to get through another day of treatments. We aim to bring a little sunshine to their cloudy days.
Every newly diagnosed pediatric cancer patient on Sarah’s Floor at the Montreal Children’s Hospital receives a Sarah’s Comfort Kit. We are thankful to Jellifish Kids and The Bell Fund for their generosity and for graciously supporting this Sarah’s Fund initiative.
Sarah’s Comfort Kit contains:- Rollie bag
- Lunch bag
- Laundry bag
- Super soft robe
- Soft cozy blanket donated by The Bell Fund
H.O.P.E. is a progressive program launched in 2023 that addresses the psychological needs of our pediatric hematology-oncology patients and their families.
