The Long Term Survivor program meets monthly to connect childhood cancer survivors in a social setting to grow in friendship and fellowship. From socials to baseball games to fundraising events, the Long Term Survivors are all about giving back, but also about having fun! As we reflect on 2017, we highlight some great memories from the Long Term Survivors in 2017!
