Comfort Bags
Young adults often begin cancer treatment with little warning and few comforts from home. Our Comfort Bags – filled with blankets, journals, toiletries, and other essentials – help ease those first difficult days. We deliver 200+ bags annually through partner hospital AYA programs.
Art Therapy
We partner with the AYA program at Princess Margaret to fund clinically-supervised Art Therapy. In multi-session group settions, patients explore healing through creative expression, build connection with others, and process their cancer experience in ways words often can’t.

”Alli’s Journey has filled a very important gap in AYA cancer care. Given that a cancer diagnosis is often unexpected, the bags provide helpful gear to make the hospital experience easier.
