During the Christmas holiday period DCMF provides a unique program called “The Spirit of Christmas Program.” Each year we ask the Children’s Oncology Unit at Loma Linda University Children’s Hospital (LLUCH) to select several families that are unable to afford a Christmas for themselves due to the exorbitant medical costs related to their child’s illness. DCMF provides each family with a tree, several gifts for each family member and food gift cards for their holiday meal. All of this is delivered to each home by Santa Claus riding atop of a fire engine being led by a police escort!
