ABOUT US

More Than Support We Become Family

Since 2000, Larger Than Life has been dedicated to improving the lives of Israeli children battling cancer and their families. What began in Israel has grown into a powerful community of care, compassion, and hope. Today, we support families through life-changing programs in Israel and provide hands-on assistance, resources, and community support for families receiving treatment in the United States.

Since 2000

Care without borders

At Larger Than Life USA, we stand beside Israeli families who travel to North America seeking life-saving medical treatment. Far from home and facing overwhelming challenges, these families often arrive exhausted, uncertain, and alone.

We help them feel connected and at home

Through our dedicated volunteers and caring community, we provide emotional support, transportation, meals, hospital visits, holiday celebrations, financial assistance, and a warm Hebrew-speaking network that walks with families every step of the way.

Together with Larger Than Life Israel, we also fund and support life-changing programs for children with cancer and their families including therapeutic kindergartens, Dream Trips, emotional support programs, research initiatives, and family assistance.

Because healing is about more than medicine.

OUR MISSION

To improve the quality of life and emotional well-being of Israeli children battling cancer and their families through compassionate support, meaningful connections, and life-changing programs. We help children and families feel stronger, supported, and never alone throughout their journey.

OUR VISION

A world where every child battling cancer is surrounded by care, hope, strength, and opportunity regardless of background, religion, or financial circumstances.

WHAT WE DO

Two Communities. One Mission.

Supporting Families in North America

Families traveling for treatment leave behind homes, routines, careers, and support systems. We help ease that burden by providing:

Transportation to and from hospitals

Meals, groceries, and practical daily support

Holiday celebrations, Shabbat dinners, and community gatherings

Hebrew-speaking volunteers and emotional guidance

Hospital visits and family activities

Help with navigating life during treatment

Life-Changing Programs in Israel

Together with Larger Than Life Israel, we support programs that strengthen children and families emotionally, socially, and physically:

Dream Trips to Orlando for children recovering from cancer

Sterile kindergartens state-of-the-art recovery and education centers for young children in treatment

Summer camps for toddlers and teenagers

Emotional and psychological support programs

Medication assistance and critical family aid

Programs supporting parents, siblings, and the entire family

OUR APPROACH

Healing Beyond Medicine

We believe healing involves more than medical care alone. Children battling cancer need moments of happiness, confidence, friendship, and normal childhood experiences. Parents and siblings need emotional support, community, and practical help so they can focus on what matters most: their child.

That is why Larger Than Life combines compassionate care, meaningful experiences, community connection, and practical support to strengthen families throughout every stage of their journey.

OUR IMPACT

Hundreds of Families, Every Year

Larger Than Life supports hundreds of children and families through programs designed to restore hope, resilience, and quality of life.

Support far from home

A family arriving for treatment finds warmth, guidance, and a community that speaks their language.

A child smiling again

A Dream Trip turns a hard chapter into an adventure full of joy, friendship, and confidence.

Comfort in community

Parents find others who understand and every act of kindness creates lasting impact.
