Children's Program

Since 1990 the Peregrine Society has organized and sponsored a trip to Branson, Missouri for children with cancer. Children from St. Louis Children's Hospital and Cardinal Glennon Hospital for Children enjoy a fun-filled three day weekend with their parents and siblings.

About 100 people leave St. Louis on a Sunday morning in May and return Monday evening. In between, they experience Silver Dollar City and marvel at talented performers at venues like the Dixie Stampede, Presley Country Jubilee and Jim Stafford Show.

One purpose of this event is to give the families the opportunity to enjoy themselves leaving their troubles at home and do so at no cost to themselves. All costs for transportation, food, lodging and entertainment are covered by the Peregrine Society.

An equally important benefit of the weekend trip is the opportunity for families to bond with others who are undergoing a similar experience and challenge.

Holiday Program

The Peregrine holiday program provides holiday gifts for about 130 of our patients and their families each year.

Included in the packages sent to each family is a personal gift for the patient, gifts for each child, personal care items, laprobes and bedsox made by our volunteers and a gift certificate to a local supermarket.

The packages are prepared by our volunteers and then delivered by volunteers of Troop C of the State Highway Department.

The total cost of the program is about $8,500.
