Programs include art and music therapy, catered meals, in-hospital birthday parties & holiday celebrations, yoga and massage, redecorated hospital rooms, financial relief, housing assistance, and so much more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since 2009, One Mission has raised more than $12 Million dollars and has brought smiles, comfort and support to over 11,000 kids fighting cancer and their families.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe see kids going through something they should never have to go through on a daily basis, and the whole family is affected,\u201d said Abby Porosky, Managing Director, One Mission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s so much more than just the treatments. It\u2019s the financial and emotional burden the family has to go through.
