MLP programs include wellness start-up packages (BeSuper Welcome Kit), culinary medicine cooking classes (Fierce Foods Academy), culinary medicine education materials (Fierce Foods Guide), health promotion art therapy (Camp Make & Believe), fully-funded individualized dietetic consultations with Registered Dietitians, dietitian- and health-coach-facilitated online parent support groups (SuperFamilies Support Network), fully-funded organic broth for families in treatment (Broth Bank), hospital library program (Ethan's & Choco's Book Club), cancer research funding, and a 12-week integrative medicine research project and support program for childhood cancer families (Ohana Project).
We empower families fighting childhood cancers and related life-threatening conditions with quality of life care, fierce foods, whole-body wellness resources, education and research. We believe that true health starts when families are empowered to be active partners in their child's healing.
