For the 6th year, Cancer Services took our children’s programs to Dream Night at the Zoo at BREC’s Baton Rouge Zoo. Part of our National Cancer Survivor’s Day weekend celebration, we brought 43 families free of charge and the zoo’s wonderful staff made it possible for everyone to enjoy the animals and activities all to themselves. Highlights were feeding the giraffes, face painting and completing the zoo’s special scavenger hunt.
Our Children’s Programs consist of Candlelighters, children with cancer and their siblings, and KidsKare, children whose parent or guardian is living with cancer. For more information, call 225-927-2273, visit our website or check out our Facebook.
