After being diagnosed with childhood cancer at the age 13 months old, and battling cancer until she was 6, thirty-three-year-old Carie Stock founded Helping Families Handle Cancer (HFHC). This charity helps families with the expenses that come along with having a child battling cancer at the Alberta Children’s Hospital.

“I always had a hard time deciding what to surprise my Mom with on Mother’s Day. Always looking for the perfect gift, I realized that the only thing my Mom would truly want on Mother’s Day is to spend time with our family. Rather than taking my Mom to the same boring brunch that is hard to get reservations for, I thought, what about hosting a Mother’s Day Tea?” said Carie Stock, Founder and Executive Director of Helping Families Handle Cancer. “As a little girl, we dreamed of sipping on tea and having miniature treats. What a great outing for Calgary families this Mother’s Day. While sipping on tea and eating treats, participants will be helping less fortunate families who have a child battling cancer.”

ABOUT HELPING FAMILIES HANDLE CANCER

Helping Families Handle Cancer is a not-for-profit organization that strives to alleviate some of the stress of childhood cancer by providing financial support to families in need, due to the time commitment at the hospital, in caring for their child. The Helping Families Care Program purchases items such as parking passes, medical supplies, medication not covered through benefits, rent, gas, groceries and other household bills that families are struggling to pay for as they take time away from work to be with their child during this critical time. To date, Helping Families has helped over 825 families at the Alberta Children’s Hospital with over $650,000 in financial support, giving more precious time with their litter hero!
