A childhood cancer diagnosis changes life for an entire family. Days that once revolved around school, playdates, sports and family adventures can suddenly become filled with appointments, hospital stays, treatments, fear and uncertainty. Families must navigate the physical realities of illness, alongside the emotional and financial strain that accompanies a life-threatening diagnosis.

In the midst of so much that families cannot control, sometimes something as simple as stepping outside can offer a moment of relief. Fresh air, movement, sunshine, space to breathe, and perhaps most importantly, time together that isn’t centered around illness. The Mother Nurture was created to help give childhood cancer families more of those moments.

In 2027, our inaugural year, we will only be providing Colorado State and county parks passes, and reimbursements for passes already bought — but looking ahead we hope to offer things like fishing rods, hiking backpacks, ski passes, hiking shoes and jogging strollers. Whatever helps a childhood cancer family get outdoors is something we want to support. Take a peek at our FAQ for more.
