Our Goals
- To RAISE AWARENESS: We aim to raise awareness and steer a public discussion of pediatric cancer, a cause that demands immediate attention due to its devastating, often-overlooked effects on family and community well-being.
- To PROMOTE SELF-CARE: Where people can learn about wellness, education, holistic remedies, self-help, and resources that support the healthy development and overall well-being of children and families, as well as community growth
- To ADVOCATE: Our advocacy is clear: we urgently need an increase in government funding for pediatric cancer research and treatment. Cutting this funding is not the answer. The answer for a cure of pediatric cancer lies in more research and treatment, not less!
- To FUNDRAISE: We aim to raise funds to support our programs and to secure seed funding for a 6-month bill supplement program, designed to help cover household bills for newly diagnosed families in need.
