Our Mission
For Pete’s Sake Cancer Respite Foundation enables cancer patients and their loved ones to strengthen, deepen and unify their relationships by creating unforgettable and lasting Respite Experiences.
Working with oncology professionals at over 100 hospitals and cancer centers, FPS provides transformative respite experiences to cancer patients (ages 21-55), their caregivers and their children and offers our families emotional support that assists them as their journey with cancer continues. Our respite program helps families recognize it is love, not cancer, that defines them.

Our Future
For more than 25 years, For Pete’s Sake has provided restorative Respite Experiences to adult cancer patients, their caregivers, and their children. Our current program capacity allows us to provide the healing power of respite to approximately 700 people each year.
Now, thanks to your support, FPS is constructing the nation's first-of-its-kind cancer respite center named Pete’s Dream which will dramatically scale that impact, serving more than 4,400 patients and their loved ones annually in a dedicated and purposefully designed space.
