Affected By Cancer

Bags of Love
Our Bags are made with love and compassion from our team. Each bag includes a hat, Hope card, bear, stress ball, coloring books, and much more. We have delivered over 500 bags to cancer patients.
Scholarships
We provide scholarships to anyone affected by cancer to continue their education after the high cost of treatment. We have provided over $25,000 in scholarships to date.
Financial Assistance
1 in 4 families lose more than 40% of their annual household income as a result of childhood cancer treatment-related work disruption. We provide assistance for families who are in financial need.
Awareness
We spread awarness on Childhood Cancer so people can understand kids get cancer too. Childhood Cancer affects a new child every 2 minutes across the world.
The Impact of Childhood Cancer
About Us
Bags of Love Foundation was founded by Julian Castaneda at just 18 years old. He was diagnosed with leukemia at 10 and again at 16 years old. His treatment included chemo, radiation, and a bone marrow transplant, giving him a second chance at life. With his second chance at life, he knew he wanted to make a difference in the community. He soon started Bags of Love as a high school club that soon became an organization. As an organization, our mission is to provide hope to children, teens, and young adults affected by cancer.
