Believe it or not, the greatest gift one could ever give another human being is absolutely free. Its blood! When we give blood, we give life. What greater gift could we bestow upon a child than a chance to live and experience all that life has to offer.

Each school day 48 children are diagnosed with cancer. One in 330 children will develop cancer by age 20. Cancer is the 2nd leading cause of death among children ages 1 to 14 in the United States. The most common cancers in children (ages 1 to 14) are leukemia (particularly acute lymphocytic leukemia), brain and other nervous systems cancers, soft tissue sarcomas, bone cancers, non-Hodgkins lymphoma, and renal (Wilms) tumors. All of which are usually treated with very aggressive chemotherapy, radiation, and/or surgery; which not only kills the cancer cells, but depletes the healthy white & red blood cells creating a serious need for blood in the body.

Thats why one of the primary goals of BrittiCares is to host blood drives in cooperation with Childrens Hospital Los Angeles and other medical facilities, to ensure that a child who is already suffering a life threatening disease, doesnt succumb because they were in dire need of blood during one of their many health crisis, and the need was not met.

To help spread the message of the importance of donating blood and registering as a marrow donor, we work with a number of celebrities including Actor/Comedian Chris Tucker, Sophie Turner, Heather Chadwell, Kyle Massey of Disneys Thats So Raven and Corey In The House, Chris Massey of Nickelodeons Zoey 101, Donnie Athens and many others
