Hi there! I'm Lauren Barg

My Story

My journey with Strength in Small Hands is deeply personal and rooted in love, resilience, and an unwavering commitment to healing. Having witnessed over ten family members bravely battle cancer, I’ve seen firsthand how illness doesn’t just affect the individual but ripples through entire families.  These experiences instilled in me a profound empathy for young hearts navigating unimaginable challenges.

​

My passion for supporting and uplifting the younger generation stems from my belief in the power of emotional healing and the resilience of children. I understand that while medical treatments address physical health, it’s the emotional support, love, and connection that truly heal the spirit. Whether it’s through creating safe spaces for open conversations, offering moments of joy amid hardship, or simply being a steady presence, I am driven by a vision where no child feels alone in their journey.

​

Strength in Small Hands is more than just an organization to me—it’s a reflection of my heart. It’s a promise to every child and family facing hardship that their struggles are seen, their feelings are valid, and their healing matters. With every initiative, event, and heartfelt connection, I hope to plant seeds of hope, resilience, and strength in the smallest hands, knowing they hold the power to build a brighter future.
