Enriching the lives of young adults ages 18-24 and their families fighting cancer. Young adults, ages 18-24, have very specific concerns when they are diagnosed with cancer. This is a time in their lives when they want to meet others and form close relationships. It's a time when they want to focus on school, careers, and starting families. Instead their time is spent in treatment at children's hospitals, where they most certainly feel it's a step backwards. Cancer robs them of the cherished independence their peers enjoy. Some wishes celebrate the completion of treatment. Some are for taking a needed break from treatment to rejuvenate for the continued fight. And, some are a last wish to spend the remaining precious time with loved ones. Typically, a Nik's Wish grant will cost $6000. Our amazing Wish Coordinators work directly with the young adults and their families to create awesome experiences filled with joy, love, and FUN! The memories created are priceless for the entire family. Read the testimonials from some of the families

In a nutshell, we’re a group of friends who share a common desire to keep Melissa’s Hope going, now, and well into the future. Please feel free to contact any one of us with questions and ideas. Melissa’s Hope is a rare and wonderful place. Its a positive and busy community that feels a lot like summer camp. Visiting Melissa’s Hope feels good because its run by good people who treat the orphans, students, and day campers with respect and great care. Its also an expensive place to run. Right now, people who know Melissa’s Hope are raising money where they can to keep it going, but its month by month with practically no reserve. Its a fragile state that we intend to change. MHF is a volunteer organization. We established MHF with our own time, energy, and money, so donations are NOT subject to any overhead or expenses. Every dollar of every donation goes directly to Melissa’s Hope.
