Coming Together at Sherry’s House

Where friendships grow, memories are made, and families find connection.

Sherry’s House is more than a home away from home—it’s a gathering place for the Why Me community. Throughout the year, the house comes alive with laughter, friendship, and meaningful moments as children and families come together for programs, activities, and special events.

Whether celebrating a holiday, connecting with others who share similar experiences, or simply enjoying time together, Sherry’s House provides a welcoming environment where families can step away from the challenges of childhood cancer and focus on making memories.

Support Groups & Family Connections

Finding strength and understanding in one another.

Some of the most meaningful moments at Sherry’s House happen when families connect with others who truly understand what they are going through. Our monthly support groups offer opportunities to share experiences, find encouragement, and build relationships in a compassionate and welcoming setting.

For families navigating childhood cancer, these connections can be an invaluable source of comfort. Whether sharing stories, offering encouragement, or simply being surrounded by people who understand, families are reminded that they are not alone.

Family Fun Events

Creating memories, sharing smiles, and celebrating together.

From seasonal celebrations to hands-on activities and special gatherings, Why Me’s Family Fun Events bring families together throughout the year. Sherry’s House hosts many of these cherished traditions, including our Easter Egg Hunt, Carnival Day, Halloween Stroll, and other special celebrations.

These events give children and siblings opportunities to laugh, play, and enjoy the simple joys of childhood while parents connect with other families who understand their journey. More than just a fun day out, each gathering helps create lasting memories and strengthens the sense of community that makes Why Me so special.

Summer Camp & Seasonal Activities

Making the most of childhood, one memory at a time.

Summer at Sherry’s House brings opportunities for fun, creativity, and adventure. Through Why Me’s summer camp activities, children and siblings can enjoy games, crafts, outdoor play, and time spent with friends in a familiar and supportive environment.

Throughout the changing seasons, Sherry’s House continues to welcome families for special activities and gatherings that encourage connection, creativity, and fun.

These experiences offer children a chance to step away from the challenges of treatment, try something new, and enjoy the moments that make childhood special.

A Community That Lasts

The connections made at Sherry’s House extend far beyond any single event or activity. Families build friendships, share milestones, support one another through difficult times, and celebrate life’s meaningful moments together.

Whether a family is newly navigating a childhood cancer diagnosis, continuing treatment, celebrating survivorship, or remembering a child who has passed, Sherry’s House remains a place where they are welcomed, understood, and supported.

At Why Me, we believe that no family should face childhood cancer alone. Sherry’s House helps bring that belief to life, one gathering, one friendship, and one memory at a time.

Together, We Carry Each Other Forward

Every gift, big or small, keeps our programs free for the families who rely on them.
