No Family Should Struggle Alone

Imagine being a parent, and learning that your child has cancer. Then imagine having to explain to your child what that means. 

And yet, children’s cancer research has been seriously under funded for decades. Of the hundres of millions of dollars raised to fight cancer, only 1% to 3% makes its way to pediatric cancer research. Ironically, pediatric cancer researchers have been responsible for introducing some of the most significant treatment protocols in the fight against both pediatric and adult cancer.  In 1968 a team of pediatric oncologists, despite being grossly under funded, achieved the first significant cure rate for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). If they can do so much with “so little”, imagine what they could do with “a lot”. This is the inspiration and purpose behind The Kid’s Cancer Research Foundation.  Our mission is to raise funds that will go directly to the labs and clinics of top pediatric researchers nationwide. 

Our narrow focus on Neuroblastoma increases the likelihood of curing this form of cancer, while also unlocking solutions for combating other forms, including melanoma and cancers of the breast, brain, kidney and liver.There is HOPE, a tremendous amount of HOPE. This is because the doctors in this fight are brilliant, compassionate and gifted. They have dedicated their lives to saving our children. They just need our help!
If your child has been diagnosed with Neuroblastoma please go to the Resource tab at the top this page for important information.
