Did you know? The HFPA recognizes the critical work of The Pablove Foundation and generously supports our Pablove Shutterbugs program with multi-year grants, so that kids like Lucky can learn the art of photography as they overcome the struggles of pediatric cancer.

Beyond grant funding, the Hollywood Foreign Press gives our deserving students the experiences of a lifetime– providing access to world-class events like the HFPA Grants Gala and Golden Globes red carpets. Our Shutterbugs get to shoot Hollywood’s biggest stars as the youngest Official Press Photographers, truly getting the royal treatment.

Thank you to the HFPA for continuing to shine a light on kids living with cancer and to the kind stars who stopped by to meet Lucky and see the face of #HFPAGRANTS in action!

Did you know? Childhood cancer is not just one disease. It’s made up of a vast group of diseases, with 12 major types over 100 subtypes. All forms of cancer cause cells in the body to change and grow out of control.

Pablove knows first hand the impact that cancer and cancer treatment can have on families, that’s why we’re on the front lines accelerating breakthroughs in cutting-edge pediatric cancer research and helping to heal patients today through art.

It’s what we call fighting childhood cancer with love.

When Claire was 5 years old, her parents heard the words that no family wants to hear — “Your child has cancer.” But Claire didn’t let a leukemia diagnosis diminish her smile or dampen her spirit. After hearing about the Pablove Shutterbugs program at their hospital in New Orleans, Claire’s mom enrolled her daughter. She got a chance to learn the art of photography with other kids just like her, living with cancer.
