JoyRX Children's Cancer Association

JoyRX Children's Cancer Association

At JoyRx, the mission delivery of Children’s Cancer Association, we know it takes more than medicine to treat cancer and serious illness. When a child is facing life’s most challenging moments, they also need emotional healing. For 28 years, we’ve been delivering programs to help kids find their Joy — one song, one friendship, one breath of ocean air at a time. When a child experiences Joy, their emotional well-being is positively impacted. Simply put: Joy makes sick kids feel better.

What We Do

Since 1995, JoyRx has been transforming the pediatric healthcare experience through innovative, Joy-based programs, enhancing the mental and emotional well-being of children in treatment with the healing power of music, friendship, and nature. JoyRx's programs are free-of-charge and kid-prescribed, empowering children to positively shift their emotional states during the stressful and painful experiences related to fighting life-threatening illnesses and extended hospitalizations.
