Kites Against Cancer 

A long-standing tradition within our local community, Kites Against Cancer demonstrates Exeter Hospital's commitment to patients, their families and our community. Celebrate Kites Against Cancer as the sky above Hampton Beach becomes filled with kites of all colors as friends, family and neighbors gather to honor and remember loved ones affected by cancer.

Since 2004, Kites Against Cancer has been filling the sky with kites as a sign of hope and support of cancer patients and their loved ones. Created by Anne-Marie Viviano, a former Exeter Hospital cancer patient, who launched the Beyond the Rainbow Fund, which assists families with expenses and wellness therapies during their cancer treatment.

100% of all net proceeds from the event will go into the Beyond the Rainbow Fund to be used to support the non-clinical needs of our active cancer patients.

The Beyond the Rainbow Fund

The Beyond the Rainbow Fund was founded in 2002 by Anne-Marie Viviano, a Seacoast resident and former Exeter Hospital patient, to provide financial and wellness assistance to patients and their families who face hardship as a result of a cancer diagnosis. Her vision was to relieve individuals of outside stressors so that they could better focus their energy on healing their bodies and minds.

Through generous support, the Beyond the Rainbow Fund covers expenses, including rent or mortgage payments, utility bills, transportation, medication, groceries, wigs and wellness treatments. It has become an invaluable resources for hundreds of Seacoast-area cancer patients.

In May, 2009, Anne-Marie passed away after a courageous 14-year battle with breast cancer. Her remarkable journey and resilience of spirit continues to inspire and provide hope to so many, while her legacy continues through the Beyond the Rainbow Fund.

All proceeds from Kites Against Cancer benefit Exeter Hospital's Beyond the Rainbow Fund. Your support is appreciated now more than ever as we help patients navigate financial hardships that impact their cancer treatment and healing.
