Hogs for the Cause is an incredible organization that holds a special place in our hearts due to its unwavering commitment to supporting families with children battling brain cancer. This charity not only provides financial assistance but also offers emotional and practical support to families during one of the most challenging times of their lives. By contributing to Hogs for the Cause, you are directly helping to alleviate the immense burden that these families face, allowing them to focus on what truly matters—their child's health and well-being.

The financial impact of childhood cancer is staggering. Did you know that 1 in 5 children who receive a new diagnosis of childhood cancer are already living in poverty? Additionally, 10-15% of U.S. families studied became impoverished during their child's cancer treatment. These families often face significant work disruptions, with 1 in 4 families reporting a loss of more than 40% of their annual household income due to treatment-related issues. Furthermore, 1 in 3 families experience other work disruptions, such as having to quit or change jobs. These figures don't even account for out-of-pocket expenses like traveling to the hospital and additional childcare needs.

Hogs for the Cause steps in to provide crucial support, helping families navigate these financial challenges. By supporting our fundraising efforts, you are helping to ensure that these families can access the lifesaving treatments their children need without the added stress of financial ruin. Every dollar raised goes directly towards making a tangible difference in the lives of these brave children and their families. Together, we can help lighten their load and bring hope during their darkest times. Please consider making a contribution and sharing this page with your family and friends. Your support means the world to us and to the families we aim to help.

Not only does cancer take an enormous toll on the mental and physical health of the patients and its family members – it also has a tremendous financial impact. The costs associated with childhood cancer make it a struggle for families to get by and meet their needs while also being able to get their child to lifesaving treatment. For families already living in poverty, these difficulties are often multiplied.
