Friends for Life of America
We are a student-run chapter of a national organization dedicated to serving and supporting children and families affected by pediatric cancer. Through compassionate service, advocacy, and community engagement, we strive to make a meaningful difference in the lives of those navigating childhood cancer. Our organization creates meaningful impact through a variety of service-oriented events that support pediatric cancer patients and their families while also engaging the University of Florida community. Hearts for Holidays brings joy to pediatric cancer patients through handmade holiday cards, reminding them that they are not alone during difficult times. Sweet Treat & Dinners at the Ronald McDonald House offer comfort and care to families staying there while their children receive treatment, providing not just meals, but a sense of community. The Chomp Cancer Carnival raises awareness about pediatric cancer among UF students and encourages campus-wide involvement in our mission. These programs foster empathy, leadership, and service among our members while strengthening the connection between UF and the greater Gainesville community.
