What Separates Us

We're a true nonprofit. And we care.

Every Hogfarmer is a volunteer, from our board to our event crews. Nobody here is paid, so what you donate goes to the mission. And when a family comes to us, they don't just get help. They become part of the Hogfarmer family.

100% volunteerNo salaries. Our board members and volunteers give their time so your gift reaches kids and families.
You become familyWe don't send a package and move on. We get to know you, your child, and what you're going through.
We stay in touchWe want to know how you're doing during treatment and long after it ends. We're with you for the long haul.

That's what separates us: we care.

HOW YOUR DONATION HELPS

The costs associated with childhood diseases are staggering, and part of the donations are used to assist these families in any way that helps.

General everyday basic needs can be a cost that puts a drain on a family’s budget while they have much larger concerns. Everything about the entire family’s life is upended, and the stresses of managing a home and family while caring for a sick child can be devastating.

Lending a helping hand

The Hogfarmers use your donations to provide essential items that not only help ease the financial burden on families, but also give them back valuable time. When a child is in the hospital or undergoing treatment, even something as simple as shopping for everyday family needs can become overwhelming. We are grateful to step in and help make those difficult days a little easier.
