Short Folks For Hope Foundation is a 501(c)(3) cancer support charity founded by breast cancer survivor Kristen Short. Their mission is to empower, encourage, and celebrate cancer warriors of all ages through various special projects, including providing Hope Bears and Encouragement Packs to cancer patients, fulfilling little wishes for cancer patients through the Wishes For Hope program, and enabling cancer warriors to experience the joy of charity cycling events through the Vivian St. Onge Memorial Rickshaw Team. They also bring smiles to kids with life-threatening illnesses through visits with their Furry Ambassadors Mascots and superhero and princess characters, and they recognize outstanding charitable efforts by youth through their Youth Ambassadors For Hope program.
Short Folks For Hope Foundation is 100% volunteer-directed and operated, with no salaried staff. They rely on donations to make a difference in the lives of cancer warriors, and they have been recognized for their music and advocacy work, with singer-songwriter Kristen Short releasing songs dedicated to her cancer journey and donating the proceeds to the foundation. Founded in 2012, Short Folks For Hope Foundation continues to inspire and support those impacted by cancer, while also encouraging youth to be compassionate and creative members of their communities.
