Candlelighters is dependent on the ongoing support of caring community citizens, businesses, civic organizations and foundations to provide vital services to families of children with cancer or blood disorders. We do not receive any government funding or any financial support from any of the national cancer health organizations. Here are ways you can help:
Participate and/or volunteer in the Gold Ribbon Classic Golf Tournament (always looking for sponsors, giveaways, etc.)
Participate and/or volunteer in the Step into Spring Fashion Show and Luncheon (we are always looking for sponsors, giveaways, etc.)
Adopt a Candlelighter family — Each year we identify Candlelighter families who need a little extra help especially during the holidays. Opportunities are available to provide gift cards for a family for any occasion.
Buy a car magnet—help Candlelighters get the word out by driving the message home. Purchase a Gold Ribbon car magnet to help promote Childhood Cancer Awareness for $5.00 each.
Send a Happy Note —make a donation in honor of a patient, friend, family member or someone special for any occasion. Candlelighters will send them a card to let them know a donation was made in their honor.
Volunteer —Volunteer your time, treasures, or talent. Volunteers are always needed and we value each volunteer. Candlelighters is a proud supporter of FGCU and Edison students and love when they come to help at events, in the office or even raising awareness of Candlelighters and childhood cancer. Candlelighters is an approved FGCU Service Learning organization.
