The Stars in a Jar concept...Stars in a Jar will connect childhood cancer survivors with children on active treatment. We strive to provide these young warriors with the message of hope, strength and of a life after cancer.
Each Jar is its own connection to a specific survivor, glimpses of their journey and their messages of hope are recorded on origami stars for a patient to unfold and discover. We are working to serve the Ottawa and Toronto areas and are looking for survivors to add to our upcoming roster, and volunteers to help make a young patient's day a little brighter. |
