Hello! Our team is lacing up in support of the Pediatric Oncology Group of Ontario (POGO) to help make a meaningful impact in childhood cancer care, both in our community and beyond.

POGO works tirelessly to ensure that every child and family affected by childhood cancer has access to the best possible care and support. We’re fortunate to have a POGO Clinic right here at the Grand River Hospital, providing invaluable resources to children and their families in treatment. 

We invite you to consider making a donation—either as part of our team or as an individual contribution. Every donation will be reflected in our team’s overall goal.

On behalf of the children and youth currently undergoing treatment or follow-up care, as well as the many survivors facing late effects from their cancer treatments, thank you for being their champion and supporting this crucial cause!
