Description


The Hailey Bankhead Foundation is an organization founded from one mother’s love for her child facing childhood cancer and a need to find a sense of purpose and a desire to ease the pain and to serve other families facing childhood cancers.

Upon preliminary diagnosis, The Hailey Bankhead Foundation, INC. will offer a personalized care package to VIP families as well as provide guidance to the resources available to make dealing with the diagnosis/transition easier. We will continue our reach supporters by providing online resources, information through social media platforms, monthly newsletters and communications. The Hailey Bankhead Foundation INC’s unique intentions are to continue to keep in close contact and continuing follow up with all our families.

We host social and kid centric events including our annual 5K Walk/Run which is just one of the ways we get the community involved in raising awareness.

The Hailey Bankhead Foundation, INC.’s "A Night Under the Stars" event is to raise money for the foundation to help further the cause of childhood cancer awareness. The monies raised will help fund the annual 5K Walk/Run, purchase hats and gifts and have holiday activities for children admitted to Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta (CHOA) at Scottish Rite. If needed, we will assist the families of children admitted to CHOA by purchasing food, parking vouchers and toiletries.
