Jonathan Cancer Fund, Inc.

Jonathan Cancer Fund, Inc. Founded in 1993, The JCF provides financial assistance to families of children suffering from cancer who are being treated in Onondaga County.

The Jonathan Cancer Fund strives to help families with the unexpected costs surrounding a pediatric cancer diagnosis. The Jonathan Cancer Fund provides families with:

Financial Assistance: Many expenses associated with childhood cancer are not covered by insurance. Additionally, during treatment, there are many hidden expenses, which may strain a family. The Jonathan Cancer Fund can offer assista

nce with some of these unexpected costs, including special equipment, doctor and drug co-pays, travel, car repairs and phone expenses. Meal Cards: The Jonathan Cancer Fund feels that well-fed parents are better caretakers for themselves and their child. A visit to the cafeteria also gives the family a much- needed respite. A meal card is available to the family when a child is an inpatient at Golisano Children’s Hospital. Phone Cards: It is important for parents to be able to call family members to keep them updated on their child's prognosis and treatment. Emotional support is necessary to help the family through the crisis. A phone card is available when a child is an inpatient at Golisano Children’s Hospital. Cell phones typically do not work well, if at all, on the treatment floors. Support and Awareness: The Jonathan Cancer Fund has created a community of parents and families that can turn to one another for advice and support during this trying time in their lives. The Jonathan Cancer Fund is dedicated to spreading childhood cancer awareness.

Our reason why 💛

Our mission never would have come to life without the inspiration behind it all: Jonathan.

It’s time! Our favorite part of September is introducing you to our incredible Honored Kids. It is their stories that make the ride what it is. Stories of hope. Stories of strength. Stories of courage. Stories of remembrance. Stories that remind us 💛

First up, the name behind it all.

Meet Jonathan! Jonathan was diagnosed with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia at just six months old. His older brother, Matthew, courageously donated bone marrow to Jonathan, but after a 15 month battle Jonathan gained his wings. Jonathan was treated in NJ, where his family was taken care of by two wonderful organizations dedicated to pediatric cancer families. When his grandma, Pat, returned to CNY she realized the need for such an organization right here in our community. Pat founded the Jonathan Cancer Fund, Inc. in 1993. We continue to work in loving memory of Jonathan and his wonderful, incredible grandma, Pat. Each year, the ride benefits the JCF to ensure that it can continue to provide financial support to newly diagnosed families in our community.


Make sure you check back every morning in September to meet each of our incredible Honored Kids 💛
