Today, approximately 3 million children and adolescents in the United States have a parent with cancer, an increase from last year. More children than ever are watching the parent they love trying to keep their head above water. More families are longing for a lifeline- something steady to hold and allow them to breathe, even for just one day.

For families facing late-stage cancer, life can feel like being stuck out at sea, doing everything they can to stay afloat. Some days the water calms just long enough for a breath of peace. Other days it feels impossible to keep from sinking. One Day to Remember offers a lifeline. We give families a day filled with connection, joy, and peace, a day that lifts hope back to the surface and becomes a legacy that continues to ripple forward.

Your generosity becomes part of that lifeline. Every gift creates a ripple that reaches farther than any of us can see. This year those ripples rose higher than ever. We celebrated our 500th family outing and created more than 200 moments of joy that will carry on in love and memory. These ripples honor the families we have served and the remarkable people whose legacies continue to guide our mission.

Right now 60 families are still waiting for their own One Day to Remember. Each day we wait, another family waits too. Your gift today helps lift them above the waves and brings hope back to the surface. Start your ripple of impact and give families the lifeline they need most.
