Helping families navigate through their child's journey with cancer for 20 years.
About us
The Emilio Nares Foundation (ENF) helps families navigate their child's journey with cancer. We assure that no child misses their cancer treatment due to lack of transportation. ENF programs include: Ride With Emilio Serving San Diego, Imperial, and Orange Counties, our flagship program Ride With Emilio provides free transportation for underprivileged children and their parents to and from the hospital for cancer-related appointments. Emilio's Loving Tabs Our specially designed shirts facilitate access to medical devices without requiring a scared child to remove their garment. The drytech material is breathable and soft against tender skin. We designed Emilio's Loving Tabs to easily open at the shoulder with snaps, enabling medical providers to access the permanent Port-a-Cath positioned at the child's chest to receive chemotherapy treatment, take blood samples and other procedures. ENF Family Resource Center Our trained, bilingual staff members help navigate families through honest dialogue. They provide access to information on the type of cancer they are fighting, treatment, housing, employment, financial aid, legal aid and other forms of assistance. Creating for Hope Our free sewing, knitting, and crocheting classes become group therapy as families meet others who are going through a similar situation. It's a coping mechanism for our moms to keep busy while spending long hours at the hospital. These activities are proven to reduce stress and promote healing. Emilio's Snack Bags ENF provides hospital-approved snack bags which are distributed by oncology nurses after they receive their treatment and have been fasting. End of Life Child and Family Care During the last days of a child's life, ENF aids families with financial aid, funeral costs, fulfillment of children's wishes, meal cards and end of life ceremonies.

Thank you Life Science Cares San Diego for supporting Emilio Nares Foundation and the hundreds of children we serve. Together, we are ensuring they have the nourishment they need to continue their fight against cancer. 💪 #community #BIO2024
We had a great day of giving back today at #BIO2024! Huge thank you to all conference attendees who came to the Bio Gives Back event to pack snack bags to be donated to the Emilio Nares Foundation. Together we assembled 300 snack bags that will go directly to children who are undergoing treatment for cancer that come from very low-income families. These children will be given the snacks when they break a fast for chemotherapy. Big thank you to Elsa Morales-Roth and Luz Quiroga for joining us today! Life Science Cares will be at BIO again tomorrow supporting Home Start Inc. Join us from 12-2 in the upper sails pavilion to put together a hygiene care kit for a child in need!

We spent a wonderful Sunday with our friends of Kiwanis San Diego Club/Foundation! Thank you for supporting Emilio’s Snack Bags program and providing food to 200 children undergoing chemotherapy. These hospital-approved snacks play a crucial role in addressing food insecurity in underserved communities. By providing these snack bags, we also ensure children have the nourishment they need after treatment, so they can continue their fight against cancer. #community #gratitude #foodsecurity #nutrition #cancerfree #KiwanisClub #servingthecommunity #bettertogether
