Coins for Candlelighters
Is a fun, easy way to raise money to support families affected by childhood cancer. Your loose change supports our Emergency Financial Assistance Program, Scholarships to cancer survivors, toys for children and teen specific items, food for the hospitals pantries and hot-catered meals. We partner with schools, businesses and community groups to execute this program.
Kids Helping Kids
Looking for a fun way to help increase awareness of the impacts of childhood cancer and raise funds to help more families locally? KIDS HELPING KIDS is a part of our COINS FOR CANDLELIGHTERS program that teaches service learning, character education and charity in schools where students gain the unique experience of kids helping kids through a coin collection fundraiser.
You make a connection with your local school and we give you all the tools to implement a program. For additional details contact the Candlelighters office at 503 719-4244 or email Jennifer Jones at jennifer@candlelightersoregon.org.

The Golf to Give Challenge
The Golf to Give Challenge focuses on raising funds for a worthy cause while also having a great time. In 2017, our inaugural tournament raised more than $19,000 in an effort to support Candlelighters For Children With Cancer. Since then we have heard many personal accounts of how Candlelighters has, and continues to support kids and families experiencing childhood cancer. With your support, we are looking forward to building on the success of last year and having another phenomenal day of golf.
The Golf to Give Challenge needs 20 Volunteers for day of tournament help. Sponsorship opportunities are available that start as low as $150 for a tee or green sponsorship. Additionally, in-kind donations are needed for gift bags, raffle and auctions prizes. In 2017, we raised more than 25% of our proceeds from generous in-kind donors. Contact Darren Youngsma at darrenyoungsma@gmail.com for more information.
