Home - Why Me & Sherrys House
Description
Guiding Principles The Why Me organization was conceived and created by 13 year old Sherry Shepherd during her four year struggle with cancer. She wanted to lift the spirits of her fellow child cancer patients as a means to ease their suffering and isolation. Since 1985, Why Me has provided hundreds of CENTRAL NEW ENGLAND children and families with the emotional and financial support they need to fight cancer. With the completion of Sherry's House, the Why Me organization is now able to provide eight bedrooms for families whose child is receiving treatment at Umass Medical Center in Worcester or at Boston area hospitals. Temporary housing is available to families from throughout the United States & Puerto Rico.
The Central New England region's only non-profit organization dedicated to the emotional well being of children and families with childhood cancer.
The Why Me organization was created (and is still managed today) by families who have had a child treated with cancer and wish to help other families who now face cancer. This deeply felt, personal perspective serves as a guiding light in delivering services that are essential, compassionate and life affirming.
