Our Mission
To provide emotional, spiritual, and educational support by listening to, understanding, and supporting families touched by childhood cancer.
Who Are We?
Founded and established by families who have faced childhood cancer themselves, Brighter Tomorrows exists to bring families together who have encountered a childhood cancer diagnosis. We understand because we have faced the same fears, asked the same questions, and grasped for the same hope necessary to survive each day of this long, and most often, difficult journey. We know the value in simply connecting with someone who understands. To learn more about how we bring families together, or to meet someone one-on-one dealing with similar experiences, please see our services and contact us.
Our History
Brighter Tomorrows was founded as a non-profit 501c3 corporation in 2007 by four mothers of children with cancer, determined that no family should ever have to travel this difficult road alone. Through their experiences it became apparent that there was power in providing support through the networking of families who were facing many of the same issues. Brighter Tomorrows is privileged to be able to provide this valuable connection for the families we serve. In 2012 our board of directors was expanded in order to better serve our ever growing number of families. In the future, our plans include offering even more programs which will benefit those whom we assist.
