Our Mission
It's For the Kids
Nearly 15,780 children are diagnosed with cancer in the United States each year. The Hogfarmers are committed to supporting children and families affected by childhood cancer, providing hope, encouragement, and assistance throughout their journey.
We exist to help children and families affected by childhood pediatric cancer.

When a child is diagnosed with cancer, the entire family is impacted. In an instant, families are faced with overwhelming emotions, uncertainty, and unexpected financial burdens, all while trying to remain strong for their child.
Hogfarmers Charitable Foundation is a nonprofit organization founded by a group of Washington football super-fans with one shared mission: to support the mental, social, and emotional well-being of children battling pediatric cancer and the families fighting alongside them.
When a family receives a pediatric cancer diagnosis, we step in to remind them that they are not alone.
Our support may include gas and grocery gift cards, financial assistance, care packages, toys and books, team memorabilia, family experiences, hospital visits in our crazy team gear, and other assistance designed around the needs of each family.
We know we can’t take away the diagnosis, but we can help make the journey a little easier. We can show up. We can support a family when they need it most. And, hopefully, we can create a moment when a child gets to forget about cancer and simply smile.
If we can bring a smile to a child during one of the most difficult times of their life, our mission is being fulfilled.
Little Hogfarmers
At the heart of everything the Hogfarmers do are the kids, children facing serious illnesses that can be painful, frightening, and overwhelming.
By helping them forget their troubles for a little while with new toys, awesome gear from their favorite football team, or something that simply brings a smile to their face, the Hogfarmers hope to ease their burden, even if only temporarily.
Letting these children know that people care about them and are rooting for them can have a powerful impact on their spirits. In a fight like the one they face, every bit of encouragement, confidence, and positive energy can make a difference.
