We Prescribe Joy!
For children diagnosed with serious illness and their families, every moment is precious. At the Children's Cancer Association (CCA), our goal is to transform as many of those moments as possible — with joy.
Feel the Music. Feel Better.
The all new MyMusicRx.org empowers seriously ill kids and teens to shift, plan, and grow – through music.
