The Light Collective: MATCHBOX Registration
Welcome!

Our monthly MATCHBOX program provides everything you need to spark a lighthearted day of family fun, and a chance to connect with other families on the same journey.

WHO WE SERVE:
::  Our MATCHBOX program is intended for families who have a child receiving active treatment or within one year of finishing active treatment for a cancer diagnosis, usually involving chemotherapy and/or radiation.  

::  For now, we are limited to serving families in the Pacific Northwest.

::  Families living in the Seattle area will have boxes delivered to your door by TLC volunteers.  Families who live farther away will have boxes shipped to your home.

::  NOTE:  Signing up for one event is not a long-term commitment.  We will contact you to sign up for future MATCHBOX events, if you are interested.  


HOW THIS WORKS:
::  Complete this form, and we'll add your family to our list.

::  We will be in touch before the event with a bit more information and a few announcements.

::  We will deliver a day of FUN for your family to enjoy from the safety and comfort of home (which might be your house, your apartment, your room at the Ronald McDonald House, or your hospital room).

::  This monthly experience will include:
     -  Dinner! (Each family will receive a gift card for GrubHub / UberEats / DoorDash so you can order dinner from your favorite spot, delivered to your door. We can also reimburse your expenses for a take-out dinner if a delivery service doesn't work for you.)
     -  A big box filled with fun and silly activities, games, and crafts for your whole family to enjoy together.
     -  A few interactive experiences on Zoom, including crafts, family games, and a safe and expertly-facilitated time of connection just for parents and caregivers.

MORE STUFF YOU SHOULD KNOW:
::  This experience is offered FREE for families. We are delighted to include all members of your household if you have grandparents, cousins, etc. who live with you full time.

::  Our team takes every precaution in the packaging and delivery of your boxes to make sure your family is safe.

::  If you are able, we hope you'll plan to enjoy the meal and the box contents AND ALSO participate in the interactive Zoom times. We believe there is deep joy and lots of hope to be found when families can connect with one another. Come as you are--we're not fancy or fussy.

::  What if only some of my family wants to participate? What if we're going back home to Montana in two months? What if I can't participate on Zoom, but I still want the box and the meal? Good questions! Please don't hesitate to reach out and let's chat:
