Silken Twine Charity is a non-profit foundation committed to helping pediatric cancer patients and providing financial support to the families of the kids fighting cancer.

Sustenance for Families

Travel Assistance Program

Educational Support

Cancer treatment takes a huge toll not only on the patient but also on the people around him/her.  Frequent hospital visits and stays are associated with the loss of work hours and sometime even one’s job, rendering it hard for families to make ends meet.  To alleviate this burden, Silken Twine Charity is dedicated to providing sustenance for families so that they can focus on the care of their loved ones.

During Sophie’s long-term stays in the hospital for various treatments, nothing brought more joy to her than seeing her friends. Visits like these gave Sophie the strength and emotional support to keep fighting. Through the Travel Assistance Program, Silken Twine Charity will bring family and friends together with their loved ones during their stays away from home.

The Sophie Malaviya Memorial Scholarship will provide tuition support for college-bound high school students affected by cancer.
