When your child is first diagnosed with cancer, the world can feel like it's collapsing around you. CJ's Smile Foundation gets that — because they've lived it. This nonprofit was started in 2022 by the family of CJ Delfosse, a little boy who bravely fought cancer for two and a half years. During his journey, CJ's family was lifted up by other organizations, and now they're paying that kindness forward to families just like yours.

Their signature gift is something called a Blessing Envelope. When a child is newly diagnosed with cancer, CJ's Smile sends them one of these envelopes filled with encouragement, comfort items, and a little dose of joy right when they need it most. It's a small thing that can mean everything in those early, overwhelming days. They've delivered these to dozens of kids, and the photos on their website of children receiving them say it all.

If your family needs support, you can apply directly through their website. They accept applications for financial aid, emotional support, and other forms of help. They're a small, community-rooted organization based in the Temecula Valley area of Southern California, so they're especially connected to families in that region — but they're open to hearing from families who reach out.

CJ's Smile is run by real people who understand cancer from the inside. They're not a big national organization — they're neighbors, parents, and community members doing something meaningful to honor a child they loved. If you reach out to them, you'll feel that warmth immediately.
