MEET OUR 2026 BENEFICIARY
This year, we’re supporting Bear Necessities Pediatric Cancer Foundation, a non-profit providing holistic services that address psychosocial, emotional, educational, and financial needs, complementing medical treatment. Their programs include arranging dream experiences and special gifts for pediatric patients, counseling and financial support for families, and post-secondary education scholarship opportunities to patients and their siblings. Bear Necessities also invests in pediatric cancer research with the goal of inspiring hope and joy within their diverse community and making a lasting, positive impact on the lives of the families they serve.
