Thank you to everyone for making the second annual POGO PJ Party a night to remember!
Together, we raised over $410,000 to support childhood cancer care across Ontario.
Funds raised provide financial assistance to families so they can pay for out-of-pocket costs associated with their child’s treatment; support survivors with customized academic and employment counselling when their disease or its treatment has left them with learning challenges; and fund promising research that examines the impact of childhood cancer and its treatment.
On behalf of the children currently in treatment or follow-up care, and the many survivors who face late effects as a result of their cancer, thank you for being our champions!
See you next year!



​ABOUT

The Pediatric Oncology Group of Ontario (POGO) ​champions childhood cancer and works hard to make a meaningful difference in the lives of children with cancer and their families. When a child is battling cancer, we ensure that they have lifelong access to the best care for the best possible outcomes. We provide their family with financial support to help ease the burden. We commit to ongoing care, knowing that childhood cancer survivors endure medical challenges into adulthood. We advance care for all children with cancer through our pioneering database and research. POGO leads a unique and impactful pediatric cancer network that is a model for Canada, and worldwide.

To date, the POGO PJ Party has raised over $530,000!  Be a part of this unique celebration.  With your support, POGO will be able to continue the important work we have done for over three decades.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

And while partying in your jammies will make you feel like a kid again, this event is 19+. If you are looking for a great way to support POGO  with your kids, check out Pajamas and Pancakes. 

What should I wear?
Your favourite PJs, of course!  We don’t discriminate…polka dots, flannel, satins or onesie, wear whatever jammies you like best.  Not sure you want to go full-on pajamas?  Why not accessorize with a sleep mask or some slippers?!  You’ll be so comfy, it’ll feel like you’re having a night in!
 
What’s included with my ticket?
The question should really be: what’s not included!  Your ticket includes a variety of delicious food, drinks from our fully-stocked bar, electrifying entertainment, photobooth photo ops and other one-of-a-kind activations!  The only thing you’ll need to pull out your wallet for will be to bid on the amazing silent and live auction items or to buy promotional draw tickets and of course, all those funds go straight to the cause!
