Who we are

Hope 4 Cancer Kids

At Hope for Cancer Kids (HCK), we believe no child should suffer from cancer without hope, care, and support. Founded in 2008 by James Nyaga, a father who experienced the heartbreak of childhood cancer firsthand, HCK has grown into a lifeline for families across Kenya.

What we do

Our 5 Pillars of Impact

At Hope for Cancer Kids, we understand that a child's battle with cancer is fought on multiple fronts. Medicine alone is not enough. It requires a holistic army of support to overcome the financial, logistical, and emotional barriers that stand in the way of survival. Our strategic, five-pillar approach is designed to do just that, surround each child and their family with comprehensive care, from diagnosis to recovery and beyond.

How We Help

Health Insurance Support Program

Many families can’t afford chemotherapy, surgery, or scans. We cover health insurance costs so children get the care they deserve

Transport & Accommodation Program

Families travel over 400 km for treatment, often abandoning care due to costs. We provide transport, housing, and meals so they can focus on healing

Psychosocial Support (Art 4 Life Program)

Cancer is traumatic—but art heals. Through painting, music, and play, we help children express their emotions and find joy even in pain
