B.I.G Love Cancer Care Services is a 501c(3), non-profit, volunteer based organization committed to providing basic necessities and personalized care to cancer kids and their families.
B.I.G. Love Cancer Care Services was established in February 2007 in honor of Brooke Alyson Phillips after her battle with acute myeloid leukemia. After two years of fighting courageously through intense chemotherapy and a bone marrow transplant, Brooke passed away on September 29, 2006.
Although she taught us many things throughout her two years of treatment like how to trust, believe, persevere, and have faith, she also taught us how deep and wide love can really be. She had a special love for all her people, and she never ceased in expressing it. Even during her last days in the intensive care unit, she still managed to love BIG all her people. She sent out hundreds of kisses and gave the I Love You sign to everyone in the room. She told us repeatedly, “I love you up to the sky.” Brooke’s Incredible Gift (B.I.G.) is Love.
It is the desire to honor Brooke by serving and extending big love to other cancer kids and their families in hopes of easing the childhood cancer journey.
B.I.G. Love Cancer Care fulfills weekly wishes of cancer kids and their families as well as providing new diagnosis gift bags, weekly toys, parking passes, holiday gift baskets, catered meals and a comfort cart.
