Tantzers began over a decade ago with a simple phone call.
What started as bringing joy to a difficult moment grew into something we couldn't have imagined. Today, we support hundreds of families each year with almost anything they need to get through this challenging journey together. We focus on what gets overlooked: siblings who feel invisible, parents who never stop moving, and families who need space to breathe.
We run a wide range of programs designed to help every member of the family, along every step of the way.
A place where kids can be kids, adults can be adults, and families can be families.
The Tantzers Family Center in Brooklyn is a ten thousand square foot spacededicated to families navigating the chaos, stress, and uncertainty of illness. It offers something the hospital cannot: normalcy, comfort, and an escape from it all.
Here, parents can relax. Siblings can play, eat, do homework and escape. And families can spend time together without machines, monitors, or waiting rooms in the background.

The programs gave us something we hadn’t felt in a long time—hope. It reminded us that we are not alone in this journey.

Their compassion goes far beyond words. They created moments of joy for our child when we needed it most, and for that, we are forever grateful.

We can't do all this without you.
Every program, every event, every late-night call we answer is possible because someone chose to support it. If that someone is you, thank you, and welcome to the family.
