Why it Matters

No child should have to face a parent's cancer alone.

At Within Range, we believe every child deserves the chance to experience the simple joys of childhood — to laugh, play, explore, and connect — even when life is turned upside down by a parent's cancer. We believe in the power of community and the importance of creating memorable experiences.

Within Range provides free programs that offer just that. From summer camps under wide-open skies to day adventures, virtual meet-ups, and outdoor experiences, we create safe, welcoming spaces for youth and teens whose families are navigating cancer.

Here, kids can step away from worry — if only for a moment — and just be kids. They connect with others who understand, build confidence, and discover they’re not alone. They gain tools to process their experiences, the freedom to have fun, and the reminder that even in hard times, joy is always within range.

Our programs are designed for children and adolescents facing a parent’s cancer, and are offered at no cost to families — because support, connection, and adventure should always be within range.

We're not just about enjoying the outdoors; we're about using these experiences to make a meaningful impact.

Through these activities, we’re not just giving young participants a break from their challenges; we’re helping them develop skills and relationships that will serve them throughout their lives.

Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better."
