Candy Cane Lane
Candy Cane Lane wraps families in warmth and cheer
Candy Cane Lane shone brighter than ever this year thanks to our incredible community of supporters, donors, volunteers, staff and friends. Together, we create a warm and welcoming experience for families facing challenges with necessities like food, clothing, housing and healthcare.
Children’s faces beam as they choose from a wide selection of new toys, while parents find comfort in selecting new winter clothing, sleepwear and essentials to keep their families warm throughout the season.
Beyond gifts, Candy Cane Lane delivers something more significant: the joy of feeling cared for, seen and supported.
We are deeply grateful to everyone who helps make this season brighter for our patients and their families—your kindness makes all the difference.
