‘Wrestling Cancer... and Loving It!’ is a raw, radiant roadmap for anyone touched by pediatric cancer. Hosted by Scott Van Almen, Founder of The inVINCEable Foundation, and his inquisitive friend Ed Tomasi, we tackle the "mountains" of a diagnosis with an uplifting spirit. This isn't just for parents; it’s a guide for friends, family, and co-workers to learn how to truly engage and help from emotional support to the missions of The InVINCEable Foundation.

How We Can Help
Vince Van Almen spending time during his own treatment with an InVINCEable family at UNC Children's Hospital.
Emotional Support
We don't believe in 'Fighting' cancer. Instead, we focus on using our 5 Pillars to help the families that we serve navigate through the fear, uncertainty and doubt of a cancer journey. We let the doctors use protocols and science to 'fight' the cancer while we focus on maintaining a positive mindset by using these pillars as our guide. Living out these values is a daily choice, and with a community like ours, it’s a choice families don’t have to make alone.
Financial Support
Each family receives $4,000 to $6,000 in direct support, which can be divided into two parts:
The Present covers a critical, ongoing bill like a mortgage or car payment. This relieves immediate stress and allows families to focus on their child, not their finances.
The Future invests $2,000 into a college savings account for the child. If one doesn’t exist yet, we help the family open it and make the first deposit.

We’re a unique charity that goes far beyond financial assistance.
Get Involved
There’s more than one way to make a difference.
Your support helps families carry themselves and their children through the most uncertain season of their lives. It’s about more than paying bills. It’s about creating space to breathe, focusing on healing, and moving forward with strength and dignity.
