Join us for a day!

Learn more about our programs and connect with other families affected by childhood cancer at our one-day picnic events. Pack a lunch for your family and come have fun with Okizu at a picnic space near you!

Join us for a weekend!

Family Camp is a weekend-long program that provides a chance to enjoy time with your family; participate in a variety of outdoor activities, connect, and build friendships with families like yours who are coping with the challenges that accompany the cancer diagnosis.

Send your child for a week!

Summer camp consists of 5 week-long sessions, two for Oncology patients and three for Special and Important Brothers and Sisters (SIBS). Both camps provide tons of fun for pediatric oncology patients and their siblings through separate programs. All programs create an atmosphere which nurtures self-esteem, and fosters a sense of community.

Registration will open January 15, 2025 and close two weeks before the start date of each program.

Every year, Okizu holds a fundraiser entitled, “Art Inspiring Hope: A Child’s Struggle with Cancer.” AIH began on a very small scale in 1995 and has grown into an extravagant gala drawing about 500 guests. This event makes it possible to provide programming for all Northern California children with cancer and their families at no charge.

The annual black-tie evening with a different, elaborate theme each year, features gourmet food, specialty drinks, silent and live auctions, and headline entertainment. Past performers have included Huey Lewis & The News, Sheryl Crow, The Robert Cray Band, The Doobie Brothers, The Dave Mason Band, and Smash Mouth.
