Bright Box: Bright Box is a free art box for families navigating a parent's cancer. Designed with kids who have a parent with cancer in mind, each box comes with everything included for simple art activities. These kits are meant to be a point of connection when a family is experiencing a medical crisis. In 2024 we distributed 915 art kits.
