Children’s Chance
was formed on September 25, 1996 by two mothers who had daughters
battling cancer. The organization was started to fill in gaps among
the current services provided for pediatric cancer patients and
their families. Children’s Chance & our Ambassador Zig the Pig
exist to assist children with
cancer and their families throughout the state of South Carolina
with non medical needs. Children’s Chance raises money to fund a
variety of programs to meet the financial, emotional, and
psychological needs of the pediatric cancer patient and their families.
Children's Chance is the only statewide non-profit organization that
assists families solely with non-medical needs such as paying
mortgages and electric bills and providing families with gas, food,
and grocery cards!

receive counseling to help deal with the issues
surrounding a child’s cancer. Children’s Chance also funds a variety
of other programs through clinics throughout the
state. To find out more about programs funded by
