Programs

All WCK programs are available at no cost to families navigating childhood cancer and blood disorders across British Columbia. Every program has been developed alongside families and the pediatric oncology and hematology community to provide practical, meaningful support when it's needed most.

 

You don't have to navigate our programs on your own. If you're not sure where to start, we're here to help. Book a Welcome Call with our team, and we'll take the time to learn about your family's unique needs, answer your questions, and help connect you with the programs and resources that are right for you.

Or, explore our programs below to learn more about the food support, connection programs for children, youth, and young adults, Port Shirts, and caregiver support available through WCK.

WCK Programs

Food Programs

Nourishing meals and snacks are brought to families at home, at BC Children's Hospital, and Surrey Memorial Hospital. Food programs help ease the daily load for families and provide the care they need during difficult times.

Caregiver Support

WCK is here to help the whole family. Through Caregiver Sessions, our Peer Support program, and Resource Guides, we can help provide you with support and resources that meet you wherever you are at in your journey and ease the load.

City Camp

Not all families are comfortable sending their kid to overnight camp - so we created a program just for them. City Camp gives kids the best of both worlds; kids can play outside, have adventures, make memories - and still sleep in their own bed at night. City Camp is for kids living with or beyond cancer or a blood disorder, their siblings, and bereaved siblings.

The Club

Moving into adult life, the impact of cancer and blood disorders brings extra challenges that not everybody understands. The Club focuses on empowering female-identifying and non-binary young adults to build supportive relationships and essential connections.

Port Shirts

The brainchild of a wonderful kid named Cameron, port shirts are adapted clothing that allow easy access to a port without having to remove your shirt. WCK provides port shirts to families across British Columbia at no cost.
