Community Heroes

An exceptional group of 25 children and teens who represent the thousands who battle life-threatening illnesses with strength and grace. The Heroes reside in Oregon and SW Washington, and were nominated by the medical professionals who work with them one-on-one.

Our Community Heroes are featured on a traveling educational exhibit that is unveiled each September at our Hero Gala and Celebration of Courage Family Festival.

Phenomenal photographer and CCA Ambassador Board member Joni Kabana donates countless hours and photographs all of the Community Heroes as well as many families CCA serves. You can view her stunning work at www.JoniKabana.com.
