Standing Strong With Childhood Cancer
About the Foundation
The Colton Strong Foundation was created in honor of our son, Colton, who was diagnosed with B-Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia at age 10.
Through our own journey, we experienced firsthand how small acts of kindness like a blanket, a game, or a note of encouragement can bring light to even the hardest days.
Now, we’re sharing that same hope with other families facing childhood cancer through our Colton’s Courage Kits — care packages filled with comfort, love, and reminders that no one fights alone.
Together, we’re Standing Strong with Childhood Cancer Families.
Courage Kits
Our mission is simple but powerful:
To bring comfort, hope, and light to children and families facing childhood cancer. One Courage Kit at a time.
Each Colton’s Courage Kit is created with love and understanding, filled with items chosen to comfort children during treatment and support parents through the journey ahead.
We believe that small acts of kindness can make a big difference — a warm blanket, a favorite game, or a journal to write down daily updates can bring a sense of normalcy and hope in the midst of chaos.
Your Support Makes a Difference
Every dollar helps bring comfort, hope, and light to children fighting childhood cancer and their families.
Each Colton’s Courage Kit costs about $50 to assemble and is filled with items chosen to bring warmth, strength, and smiles during hospital stays.
What Your Donation Supports
Courage Kits for children and families at Mary Bridge Children’s Hospital
Comfort items like blankets, socks, journals, and games
Supplies for parents and guardians to help them stay organized and supported through treatment
We are currently awaiting IRS approval for 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status. Once finalized, your donations will be tax-deductible.
Until then, we’re gathering item contributions and community support to prepare for our first large delivery of Courage Kits.
Together, we can make hospital days a little brighter and remind every child and every parent that they are not alone.
