The Anna Schindler Foundation was established to support families facing the isolation and financial strain of a childhood cancer diagnosis. The foundation provides emergency financial assistance to help families cover essential living expenses such as rent, mortgage payments, car repairs, and utility bills. By easing these immediate financial burdens, the organization allows parents to focus more of their energy on their child's treatment and recovery.
A major initiative of the foundation is Anna’s Homes, which provides specialized off-site housing for pediatric oncology families. These homes offer a clean, safe, and supportive environment for families who must travel long distances to receive treatment at regional medical centers. Additionally, the foundation provides meal cards and gas cards to help with the daily costs associated with hospital stays and frequent travel to and from appointments.
