Heroes for Children is a nonprofit organization providing financial and social assistance to families, within the state of Texas, of children (ages 0-22 years) battling cancer. To date, no request has been denied. Heroes for Children helps families pay for rent, utilities, medical bills, and more. Often, a parent has to leave work to care for their child, which creates financial stress. Our goal is to ease this stress and enable the family to focus on the most important part of treatment - the child. Heroes for Children was founded in memory of Taylor Anne Brewton and Allison Leigh Scott, both of whom were diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia. Taylor lost her courageous battle at the age of four, while Allie's battle ended before her first birthday. Taylor and Allie's tremendous courage and amazing spirit touched the lives of many in this community and across the country. Taylor and Allie's spirits live on through our organization.
