15,280 children will be diagnosed with cancer this year. Nearly every one of these children will have to be isolated from their friends and unable to attend school as a result of their treatment. Hopecam, a 501 (c)3 organization, virtually connects pediatric cancer patients with their classmates. Through Hopecam-provided technology and Internet access, we help reduce the loneliness and social isolation that kids feel as they undergo treatment; lift the spirits of kids and their families during what can be a long and daunting time; and enable homebound students to see and talk with their teachers and friends, keep up with in-class programming and education and/or participate in extracurricular clubs and social groups. 

By keeping kids in cancer treatment connected and engaged wiht their social circles, Hopecam promotes healing and boosts mental health by defeating social isolation. Research shows that children who felt more supported from their classmates during treatment were "less depressed, less anxious and had higher self-esteem" than children who did not feel supported by classmates (Suzuki and Kato, 2003), and Hopecam was founded in 2003 on that very premise. We have connected more than 2,100 pediatric cancer patients with 40,000 classmates in 47 states and abroad, with 71% of assisted students attending Title 1 schools. Thanks to our donors and supporters, Hopecam covers 100% of the technological costs associated with connecting homebound students with their schools.
