For the last 4-5 years could not have survived without it. You are wonderful and caring. My grand daughter was diagnosed with Hodgkins Lymphoma. It has been a long journey we started at Newark Beth Israel.
we have been helped to cope , keep standing, and hugged and loved our way to success. This brave little 10 year old girl had also been diagnosed with autism. We owe our life and sanity to the Valerie fund and all the magnificent doctors, nurses, and all hospital staff who kept all of us afloat.

A comfort to all families whose children are fighting cancer and blood disorders. They gave our family so much support throughout the years. My grandson, fought the fight until his passing this year and when other places just left the Valerie Fund checks up on us and makes sure we are ok. Give to the Valerie Fund, where everyone is family

I was introduced to The Valerie Fund Foundation in 2016 at Beth Israel Hospital when my 11 year old daughter was diagnosed with cancer. This Foundation was truly amazing for they took the time to speak with me and spent many hours and days with me when I was in a very difficult time. The people really care for they assisted me in every way possible.

The Valerie Fund operated Camp Happy Times, a one-week overnight camping experience for children who are battling cancer as well as children in remission. As a volunteer for CHT, I have seen first hand how amazing an organization this is and the phenomenal work they do for their patients and the entire family!

My daughter was sent to Valerie Fund when a tumor she had In her arm was suspicious. It was a grueling time for my family and me. Upon arrival to the hospital, my daughter was made to feel so comfortable that she said “I love it here!”
Because the staff and doctors and nurses were so good to her I have continued to support this wonderful organization. I can’t say enough good things abt this place.

My son is a patient at the Valerie Fund Center in Paterson, NJ at St. Joseph’s Children’s Hospital.
I cannot begin to express my gratitude in how they have helped us tremendously through their support and programs. My son can now experience things he could not have done so otherwise, due to his medical condition (Sickle Cell Anemia).
The care and concern the Valerie Fund has shown him as well as myself is incomparable! We have learned to appreciate every aspect of life and the Valerie Fund has taught us that and SO much more.

Our daughter received treatment for a stage 3 blood cancer through the Valerie Center in Morristown in her late teens. Everybody there from the doctors, nurses, nurse practitioners, and staff were incredible. Her oncologist, Dr. Halpern is so respected in the field and by the families whose children he has helped. It’s such a hard thing to go through but they all made us feel like family, and the whole process was supported - including excellent help with the school or college. Our daughter had cutting edge treatment and is back at college living a full life.
We would recommend the Valerie Center
