Showing Up With Love: Meet Our Bay Area Team

Gold Rush Cure
The Bay Area team started with a handful of deliveries in 2022 and became an official Gold Rush Cure location in 2023. Today, over 20 volunteers shop, wrap, coordinate and deliver. Together they've delivered 189 Pots of Gold. Every delivery is a break from treatment and a memory the whole family holds onto.

Behind every Pot of Gold is a team of people who shop, wrap, coordinate and deliver, all with one goal: bringing joy to children fighting cancer and their families.

The Gold Rush Cure Foundation Bay Area team was officially recognized in 2023, but their story began even earlier, with deliveries starting in 2022. Since officially forming, the team has delivered 189 Pots of Gold, 114 as an official GRCF location.

A Team Behind Every Pot of Gold

Today, the Bay Area team has grown to over 20 dedicated members, each playing an important role in bringing these special deliveries to life.

There are dedicated shoppers who select personalized gifts based on each child’s interests, wrappers who prepare every package, and a delivery team that gets to experience the excitement of presenting each Pot of Gold.

Two co-team leaders also handle the initial outreach to families and coordinate the details that make each delivery possible.

As highlighted in the video above, Showing Up With Love: Our Bay Area Gold Rush Cure Team, it truly takes a team to create these moments.

More Than a Delivery

The video gives a glimpse into the entire process, from shopping and wrapping to the moment a child finally gets to open their gifts.

A Pot of Gold is about much more than what’s inside the packages.

For children whose lives can become filled with treatments, hospital stays and appointments, these deliveries create a moment centered entirely around them. Their favorite things. Their interests. Their excitement.

It’s an opportunity to simply let a kid be a kid.

189 Moments of Joy and Counting

What started with a handful of deliveries has grown into a team of 22 people who continue showing up for families throughout the Bay Area.

189 Pots of Gold. 189 opportunities to bring encouragement, excitement and love to a child fighting cancer.

And there are still so many more children to reach.

Whether you’re a shopper, a wrapper, a delivery volunteer or simply someone who wants to make a difference, there’s a place for you in the Gold Rush Cure Foundation mission.

Because sometimes making an impact starts with something simple: showing up with love.
