The Friendship Bowl is our annual campaign for friendships!
Every day, there are children in this community that are forced to watch a loved one battle or succumb to cancer. These children need support – the support of mentorship, or as we call them here at Walk With Sally, “Friendships”.
We have set a high goal of fundraising for 25 Friendships – that’s $125,000! We need your help to build awareness for our program and to help us raise the funds needed so we can help more kids dealing with the trauma of a loved one’s cancer journey.
This year is particularly critical because we are also going to use these funds to establish a satellite office so that we can support families impacted by cancer in new areas throughout Los Angeles County. Taking us one step closer to our goal of creating a world where no child walks alone in the face of a loved one’s cancer journey.
