TUTORING
Children and young adults in need of individualized academic support can apply to receive up to 24 hours of virtual or in-person tutoring services in partnership with Grade Potential Tutoring Agency. This program is recommended for those in maintenance or remission. Siblings are eligible for tutoring services as well.
NEUROPSYCHOLOGICAL EVALUATION
To help families address learning difficulties associated with cancer treatment, TBCF covers up to $1,500 of a neuropsychological evaluation. Test results are used to better understand and effectively advocate for their child’s academic needs.
TEDDY'S DISCOVERY KITS
When a child is diagnosed with cancer, school often comes to an abrupt halt. While families focus on treatment, there's often a gap of several weeks before a hospital education program begins. To help bridge that transition, TBCF is proud to offer Teddy's Discovery Kits. Each kit is thoughtfully curated around a fun, engaging theme and includes age-appropriate books, hands-on activities, creative projects, and screen-free interactive learning materials.
"It was more than just assistance with the academic transition; it was a time to listen, guide and validate the multitude of feelings that surrounded her as she was trying to live life as a child again. If she didn't receive the extra help, she would have had a much harder time. She is now in remission and receiving A's and B's in her 8th grade classes in middle school!”
