HCCF provided much needed financial support when our son was diagnosed with an aggressive cancerous brain tumor, rare in children. In an instant your family is faced with this unexpected journey, and it is impossible for both parents to continue to work. Living in Hawaii is expensive, and faced with not only the grave illness of your child, you have the weight of constant living expenses on your shoulders. HCCF provided immediate support with the easiest access. They continued to support us on our journey at Christmas, inviting us to their Santa celebration. We were able to take our son to see Santa while admitted in the hospital and watch joy unfold as my son and daughter both opened their gifts!! Thank you HCCF!
