JoyRx was founded in Portland, OR!

Here are the programs available to you…

  • The national resource guide for families and caregivers of children and teens with cancer includes helpful resources and information to help you during this healthcare journey. Download the pages here.

  • The only program of its kind in the nation, our trained, adult volunteers provide emotional support to children and to parents who endure the hardships of long hospital stays (eligible to children ages 3-18 in OR and SW WA with a cancer diagnosis or terminal prognosis).

  • Nestled in 24 acres of woods and a serene lake, our Alexandra Ellis Caring Cabin at the Oregon Coast provides provides children in treatment and their families with a place of peace (eligible to children ages 3-19 in OR and SW WA with a cancer diagnosis or terminal prognosis).

  • Our talented musicians would love to record a song for your child or teen. Celebrate a special event through a personalized song!

  • Set up a personalized or recurring virtual music session for your child or teen with a JoyRx Music Specialist. This is great for instrument lessons or personal jam sessions.

  • Each month’s 45-minute livestream concert features an interactive activity like song request, sing-alongs, musical games, and more!

  • Whether it’s available on their personal devices or through CCTV or accessed 24/7 through YouTube, JoyRx Music On Demand helps kids feel connected even when our team is away on our YouTube channels:
