About Mac’s Gift Children’s Cancer Foundation

Mac’s Gift was created to help the families of children who are battling cancer. The main focus of the organization is to lift the burdens of these children and their families, and to do so especially around the Christmas season. This centers around two evenings in December. One night the parents of children with cancer come to connect with other families in similar situations, enjoy a fine meal, and shop “Santa’s Workshop” for Christmas presents for not just their child with cancer, but for all of their children. The following night the whole family is invited to a Christmas celebration that features games, photo booths, the BYU Basketball team, superheros, dinner, a visit from Santa Clause and more.
