BIG Love Cancer Care was established in February of 2007 in memory of Brooke with one primary focus...to ease the childhood cancer journey. The organization’s primary mission is to bring immediate care through physical, emotional and financial support to cancer kids and their families every single day.
In 2007, the organization’s first program provided catered meals and gift baskets for families during each holiday at Texas Children’s Hospital in Houston. BIG Love programming expanded to Texas Children’s Hospital in Katy, TX in 2011, to Dell Children’s Medical Center of Austin in 2014 and to Texas Children’s Hospital in The Woodlands in 2016. On January 8, 2018, BIG Love Cancer Care was asked by MD Anderson Children’s Cancer Hospital to join their pediatric oncology team. In 2020, BIG Love extended to Methodist Children’s Hospital in San Antonio, TX. We added 2 new hospitals in 2022, Brook Army Medical Center (BAMC) in San Antonio and McLane Children's in Temple. Today, the organization reaches more than 100,000 patients and their families annually, offering 15 programs at EIGHT Texas hospitals, 52 weeks a year.
