During Jessie’s 10 month battle with cancer she focused on encouraging other kids fighting cancer to NEGU – NEVER EVER GIVE UP. Thank you for joining the team who wants to continue spreading that encouragement through the creation of brightly decorated Care Cards.

Please take your time with these cards – quality and heart are more important than quantity. Imagine the joy and encouragement you are spreading when a child in the midst of fighting cancer opens a package containing cards exploding with color and supportive messages from someone they have never met! The cards may just find their way to the walls of their bedroom or hospital room as an ongoing reminder of your love and encouragement!
