Lending Hearts Helping Children With Cancer

Lending Hearts is the first pediatric cancer organization and program of its kind serving Pittsburgh area children who are battling or surviving cancer through peer support, recreational and educational programs.   

Lending Hearts is a nonprofit organization that facilitates free activities in a peer supportive and engaging atmosphere for children and teens with cancer or in remission from cancer. 

Our One of a Kind Program offers positive, enriching  activities  outside of treatment and hospital visits  for our region’s youth. We understand the need for adolescents: 

  •  To feel supported as they battle cancer
  • To interact with peers who are experiencing similar challenges
  • To participate in enriching activities that create a feeling of “normalcy”
  • To have an organization and place of their own
  • To engage and be exposed to the creative, performing and visual arts, world cultures, exercise, nutrition and overall health and wellness
  • To focus on living and a positive, productive future
