Cancer doesn’t take a break, even in a pandemic. With social distance strategies in place, our team is innovating the ways we deliver Joy remotely.
Tickets for this Summer’s Joy Ride Car Raffle are a steal at just $25 each (down from $40 last year). That means you could win a premium Audi Q3 for just $25—of course, the more tickets you buy, the better your odds! Plus, every ticket purchased will deliver the healing power of Joy to thousands of kids and teens facing cancer and other serious illnesses.
Since 1995, CCA has been transforming the pediatric healthcare experience through innovative, Joy-based programs, enhancing the mental and emotional well-being of pediatric patients with the healing power of music, friendship, and nature.
Our hearts are heavy with the weight of recent events in our country and we stand adamantly opposed to any and all forms of bigotry, racism, and social injustice. As an organization focused on creating emotional well-being, we recognize that change begins with empathy. Never has empathy been more needed than today.
CCA has often looked internally, evaluating all aspects of our own culture and leadership in ensuring balance, equity, and inclusion across our operations. We believe we can do better. We see new opportunities for us to listen, learn, and act to find meaningful ways to catalyze the positive change our nation needs. Our commitment is not just for this moment, but for the long term and as an ongoing practice. We stand with our Black community and all diverse communities in the fight against racism, harassment, and violence, and we urge all to do the same.
