About this organization
Mission
Walk with Sally provides hope through our individualized mentoring and community support services to empower children experiencing trauma through a parent, guardian or sibling's cancer journey.
About
Walk with Sally is committed to providing healing and comfort to children debilitated by the emotional experience of living with or losing a parent, guardian, or sibling to cancer. This healing is facilitated through free of charge mentoring support programs and services that provide an emotionally safe environment for children to share their difficult experience with someone who has suffered the same. The focus of our mentoring program is to match and create one-on-one mentoring relationships ('friendships') between a child and an adult who have both been impacted by cancer. The child in the 'friendship' is living with, lived with or lost a(parent or sibling to cancer. The adult in the 'friendship' lived with or lost a parent/sibling to cancer in their lifetime or is a cancer survivor. The mentor and mentee commit to the friendship for a minimum of 1 year, spending 6-8 hours together each month. Our mentors are trained volunteers whose compassion and dedication make our mentor program possible. Volunteers also contribute their time to assist with fundraising events. During 2018, over 400 volunteers contributed almost 14,000 volunteer hours.
