Description

Connecting Champions helps young adults and children affected by cancer explore their passions and future goals by pairing them with mentors in fields they love. Through virtual and in-person mentorship, participants gain hands-on career exposure, meaningful connections, and personalized support during treatment and survivorship.

Highlights:

Career & Passion Mentorship: Matches young adults and children (ages 3–39) with mentors from 200+ professions for regular video visits, skill-building, and behind-the-scenes career exploration.

Developmental & Psychosocial Support: Research-backed model that strengthens confidence, reduces isolation, and helps participants feel in control of their future during and after treatment.

Personalized Projects: Provides customized “passion project” materials—such as robotics kits, makeup tools, or art supplies—to spark learning from home or the hospital.
