General Support For Children With Cancer

In Kankakee, IL, the Hailey Bankhead Foundation (HBF) is dedicated to providing critical support to children impacted by cancer and their families. Our mission is to address the often-overlooked needs that arise during a cancer diagnosis, offering a range of essential services designed to uplift and assist. We provide care packages filled with comfort items, emergency financial assistance to ease the burdens faced by families, and therapeutic activities that foster healing and connection. Our support groups and spiritual guidance create a space for open dialogue and emotional sustenance, while our grocery and gas cards, gift certificates, and meal vouchers ensure families have access to the resources they need during difficult times. With compassion and commitment, HBF stands by those navigating the challenges of childhood cancer, helping to lighten their load and enhance their journey.
