For Families

Sky High is dedicated to providing comfort to our Cancer Warrior families. That’s why we’ve curated a comprehensive collection of resources to support you every step of the way. From practical information to emotional support, we’re here to help empower and uplift your family during this time. Explore our resources and know that you’re not alone on this journey.

CANCER WARRIOR PACKS

Providing Comfort

Our team creates tailored packages for children fighting cancer. No two warrior packages are the same and include special gifts for not only the child, but for the entire family. The packages include items such as arts and crafts, pajamas, toys and gift cards for essential needs. While the gifts are small in size, we know they have a big impact on the families.

Madelyn’s Weekend at CJ4 Ranch with Parker McCollum

In November 2024, Cancer Warrior, Madelyn, joined an unforgettable weekend retreat at CJ4 Ranch for her Sky High Adventure! Surrounded by her family, Madelyn took part in a whitetail deer hunt in the scenic Texas landscape, creating lasting memories together.

The weekend was highlighted by a campfire performance from country music artist Parker McCollum, and getting to hunt alongside him. With gourmet meals and a professional photographer capturing every moment, the retreat was designed to give Madelyn and her family a chance to relax, reflect, and celebrate strength.

Generously donated by Cullen & Jodie Spitzer of Spitzer CJ-4 Ranch, LLC, this weekend was a reminder of the importance of community and the resilience of Cancer Warriors. Madelyn and her family will always cherish the memories made during this special time.
