On March 5, community came together to celebrate three years of Jane's Fund, and it was a true miracle to experience the power of strangers laughing and crying together in one space.

Every single one of you who gives, volunteers, attends, shares, and believes is part of our why, and the reason we have many miracles to share each Monday.

Some miracles aren’t loud. They don’t arrive with cheering crowds or flashing lights. They arrive quietly in the form of time. In the form of presence.

Dying of brain cancer in just five months at age 17, Jane challenged us to finish life strong. “Change the world as you go,” she advised, so you don't regret at the end having lived your life wrong.

Watching four-year-old Carter dress up as a fairy princess, twirling around their home, Ms. Ford—Carter’s Mom—never imagined that Carter’s subtle loss of balance was caused by DIPG.

Their mom describes them as “two peas in a pod,” and anyone who meets them can see why. Their friendship is pure joy, and a gift to everyone who witnesses it.

Mikayla is just 14 years old and bravely fighting leukemia. Despite aggressive chemotherapy and treatment, her cancer won’t back down.

No parent ever prepares to bury their child, nor can they comprehend saying goodbye. Thanks to your generosity, Jane's Fund never says no to funding a child's funeral. 

At Jane’s Fund, we believe that when a child is dying of cancer, it is often unexpected friends—and even strangers—who show up to light the path forward.

Overwhelmed by the needs and wishes coming from pediatric patients fighting cancer this holiday season, hospital social worker Tori recognized a crisis unfolding this week.

Despite crutches and ongoing cancer treatment, Jade refuses to give up on school, her friendships, or her big-sister duties.

There’s something remarkable — maybe even upside down — that Jane’s Fund witnesses every week when a child is diagnosed with cancer.

As Thanksgiving approaches and we near the end of year three at Jane’s Fund, our hearts are especially grateful for brothers.  

When Lindsay, one of the social workers on Alexis’s care team, reached out to us this week, she shared a story that reminded us exactly why Jane’s Fund exists.

Diagnosed with leukemia at six months of age, Violet has only known hospitals, chemotherapy, bone marrow transplants, and ambulance rides for the majority of her 33 short months. 

Will never imagined when he had his appendix removed that the surgeon would call him several days later: "The bad news is your appendix had cancer in it, but the good news is we think we got it all."

Jane’s Fund continues to be humbled each week by the privilege of helping families honor and celebrate their child during their final days on earth or their first days in heaven.

The challenge of sharing a miracle each Monday at Jane's Fund is words often fall short, which is especially the case when attempting to describe the  life of Ann Shea.

We cannot imagine. But we can ask: How can we help change the outcome? Here is a snapshot of a few cancer kids from this week at Jane's Fund.
