At ThinkBIG, we offer more than words of encouragement—we provide real, tangible support. Our vision is a community where families facing pediatric cancer never have to choose between paying bills and caring for their child. We provide financial relief for essential needs like rent, utilities, and transportation. This unique approach ensures parents can stay by their child’s side without the constant stress of mounting expenses. Supporting ThinkBIG means championing hope, stability, and a future where families feel empowered, not burdened.
Why the name ThinkBIG?
ThinkBIG was named in memory of 9 year old Carmine Monacelli, who unfortunately lost his battle to pediatric cancer. During his treatment course, Carmine was known for his positive attitude, altruism, and futuristic dreams.
Carmine would also share with his doctors and nurses his aspirations for when he grew up. One day he would want to be a WWF wrestler, the next day a marine, and some days a marine biologist. He even wanted to be the first
American Pope. Carmine left us with a legacy of ThinkingBIG.
