At ThinkBIG —we lend a real helping hand when it matters most. We believe no parent facing a child’s cancer diagnosis should ever have to choose between keeping the lights on and being at their child’s bedside. By assisting with everyday expenses like housing, power bills, and travel, we help take away the heavy financial worry so families can focus entirely on loving and caring for their child. When you support ThinkBIG, you give families hope, comfort, and the peace of mind to face each day together.
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.
