Melissa & Doug

The Jack & Jill Late Stage Cancer Foundation is proud to partner with beloved toy brand Melissa & Doug to help bring joy to families facing the terminal illness of a parent. Melissa & Doug joins our incredible network of WOW! Partners as the “Official Toy Company of WOW!” These WOW! Experiences are part of a cancer treatment protocol that provides families a prescribed timeout from late stage cancer to create cherished memories…while they can.

WOW!2U Experiences

During the COVID-19 pandemic, JAJF was unable to fly families to WOW! destinations like New York City, Florida, and Hawaii. It was more important than ever to create these special family memories, however. Enter Melissa & Doug. With their kind and generous partnership, JAJF was able to create WOW!2U experiences for young families at home, including Zoom calls with celebrities, pizza parties, and of course, toys from Melissa & Doug. Families were still able to enjoy WOW! Experiences and create the treasured memories that will become their greatest inheritance.
