The Dragonfly Foundation Chicago is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to supporting local pediatric cancer patients and their families by offering strength, courage, and joy during the most difficult of times.
We do this by fulfilling day-to-day essential needs (brought to our attention through front-line staff at all eight of our area partner hospitals), such as gas cards, grocery cards, household essentials, toys, and more. We create community - by providing opportunities for our families to enjoy sporting events, holiday outings, and fun experiences, which provide a distraction from their daily treatments. Our many hospital programs help our partner clinical teams to provide stellar, developmentally appropriate care, such as our hair loss kits and treatment-related stuffed animals.
While our chapter only started in March of 2020, as of July of 2024 we have already assisted over 800 families throughout the Chicagoland area and raised over $600,000 to support our families. The demand for our services is growing and we look forward to continuing to make an impact on those affected by pediatric cancer.
