Candlelighters does such a great job at supporting families with the devastating reality of childhood cancer. They support everybody from parents to siblings, and understand that childhood cancer affects not just the patient, but the entire family. Their amazing staff and wonderful volunteers are such a blessing to so many people!

Candlelighters supports my family in great, sad, joyous, and overwhelming times. The generosity provided by Candlelighters has allowed my family to be connected to a community of patients, parents, volunteers, Parent Consultants, and knowledgeable staff. Without Candlelighters, we would not have the connection to families like ours.

Candlelighters is an amazing organization that helped my family so much when my daughter was undergoing treatment for cancer. They continue to support us even after treatment has ended. I love this organization so much. I even volunteer with them when I can.

I love volunteering for Candlelighters! They are compassionate and hard working people who help families facing childhood cancer. They walk alongside them, shedding tears and also celebrating victories. As a volunteer, I have seen the heart of the organization and have found so much joy playing a small role in their efforts.

I LOVE the Candlelighters organization. The Candlelighters group goes way above and beyond trying to help support children with cancer. Their organization not only includes the children, but the whole family . As we know no one goes through cancer alone. It affects the whole family. They help with so many things that help take some of the burden off of the family. They host fun events along with several sports organizations and local groups to make life more normal for these special children. Our family has been donating for many years and our Crosby organization, Bras for the Cause is honored to have them as one of our recipients as well as many of our committee volunteering for their fundraising events. The ladies who work in the Candlelight office are the most caring and the sweetest people. Most of the people in the organization, including Board members, have had either children or family members who have had cancer so they understand the needs and concerns of the families.

As a parent with a child with Cancer at MD Anderson, this organization was a true blessing. The parking vouchers, meal vouchers, gas gift cards, grocery gift cards was a unexpected treasure! The most valuable support was the emotional support I received from the parent consultant. She understood the pediatric childhood cancer road and was just the guide I needed.

BEST ORGANIZATION EVER!!!
