Helping Families Feel at Home When They Need It Most

Everyone deserves a home away from home that provides a safe and welcoming space to build connections and community. For 25 years, Christopher’s Haven has done just that, creating a warm and supportive environment for families whose children are undergoing cancer treatment in Boston.

Join a growing community of volunteers for an evening of service where volunteers will help assemble welcome kits for new families and spend time with children through games, arts and crafts, and creative activities.

Let’s create moments of comfort, joy, and connection for families facing challenging times. A few hours of your time can leave a lasting impact.
