As a 100% volunteer-based 501c3 nonprofit charity organization, The Wes Strong Foundation's purpose is to provide help for families facing pediatric cancer at all stages of their battle.

Our Annual Wes’ Wish toy drive was started by Wes himself when he was first diagnosed with Neuroblastoma at the age of 5. He was worried that the children in clinic fighting with him would not have toys for Christmas. He asked his mom, Krista if he could donate some of his own toys.

And this is where it all began. One local boy with a loving, kind and generous heart wanting to give back.

The holiday season often comes with many financial challenges and it is only worse when your child is facing a life-threatening diagnosis. Our Wes’ Wish Toy Drive allows us to set up a shopping event every year for local pediatric cancer families and families of the CHKD Cancer & Blood Disorder Clinic. There parents/guardians can shop for all of their children’s Christmas gifts free of charge, gift wrapping included.

Help us raise money to cover gifts for the ages that are most needed, as well as popular wishlist items by making a donation! Set up a page to raise money for Wes’ Wish in honor/in memory of your own child battling. The local pediatric cancer families of Hampton Roads and surrounding areas appreciate your support!
