For children diagnosed with serious illness, every moment is precious. Regina's oldest daughter, Alexandra, was diagnosed with cancer at the age of three and battled valiantly for 731 days before it took her life. From this personal experience, Regina set out to change the world through the power prescribing joy. To harness and share the joy effect with those in harm's way through music and other meaningful experiences - we can transform perspective and experience. Ultimately measuring our life in memorable moments.
Regina Ellis is the Founder and Chief Joy Officer of the Children’s Cancer Association (CCA), the only organization of its kind in the nation. Established in 1995 after her daughter Alexandra died of cancer, CCA delivers JoyRx to seriously ill children, teens, and their families when they need more than medicine. What started around Regina’s kitchen table has now grown to be one of the largest children’s health organizations in the Pacific Northwest, with award-winning programs that reach children in 32 states and counting. For children diagnosed with serious illness, every moment is precious. Regina Ellis’ goal is to transform as many of those moments as possible—with joy.
