The Tomorrows Children's Fund was founded by a group of committed parents to help their children and other like them with cancer and serious blood disorders. With the help of friends like you, today, TCF provides a warm, healthy and loving environment for children in treatment; a full scope of services to relieve families' emotional and financial stress; the very best possible medical care; and funding for research on these diseases. All of which confirms our belief that through hope, hard work and heartfelt generosity, extraordinary things are possible.

To this end, we strive to meet the needs of those who are financially overwhelmed with a full spectrum of services including:

• Assistance with mortgage, utility and car payments.
• Complimentary accommodations in furnished apartments near the medical center for parents whose children require lengthy hospital stays while undergoing bone marrow transplants or other extended treatments.
• Gift certificates from local supermarket chain stores for families in need of grocery supplies.
• Donations of coats, jackets and other suitable items for children and family members without adequate winter clothing.
• A no-cost wig program for children facing hair loss during treatment.
• Appropriately sized clothing for those undergoing weight changes while under medical care.
• Educational grants for patients enrolled in college or secondary education who maintain passing grades.

The Bringing the Outside World Inside Foundation (BOWI) is a non-profit foundation that donates state-of-the-art PCs and laptops, software, Internet access and video conferencing systems to children's hospitals across the nation and abroad for critically ill children during their hospital stays.

The intent of the BOWI Foundation is to give hospitalized children a meaningful connection to their family, friends, schools and communities during a very difficult period in their lives. Children that feel good about themselves while recuperating recover quicker and adjust better when they return home to their family and friends.

Hope for Henry Foundation (HFHF) improves the lives of children with life-threatening illnesses by providing carefully chosen gifts and specially-designed programs to entertain and promote comfort, care and recovery. HFHF brings smiles and laughter, hope and magic into the lives of these children and their families.

Our program has four primary components: Gifts for individual children battling life-threatening illnesses. A diagnosis of Fanconi anemia, neuroblastoma, leukemia or osteosarcoma brings with it significant disruption to a child's quality of life. Instead of spending time in school, camp or sports activities, these children spend much of their time in the hospital seeking life-saving treatment and waiting to get better. Hope for Henry provides children with gifts like iPods, Game Boys, digital cameras, portable DVD players and XM satellite radios which provide hours of entertainment and break the monotony of the hospital stay.

Gifts for the patients' siblings. Brothers and sisters lives are also interrupted by virtue of having a sibling who spends far too much time in the hospital. To ensure that they are not forgotten, Hope for Henry provides them with gift cards so they can pick out something special.

Celebratory events that bring childhood pleasures to hospitalized children and their families. Aside from receiving a great gift, what's the fastest way to put a smile on a kid's face? A party of course. Because their immune systems are compromised, young patients undergoing bone marrow transplants or chemotherapy often can't attend birthday parties or go to crowded public places like the movies or amusement parks. Throughout the year, Hope for Henry sponsors events like Halloween parties, summer carnivals, superhero days and book release parties to ensure that the kids don't miss out on some of the pleasures of childhood.

Hospital-based programs that improve the activities and amenities available to children awaiting or undergoing treatment. Hope for Henry provides hospital clinics with programs that entertain, provide distraction from painful procedures and fill down time with fun and laughter.
