Problem: Childhood cancer research is grossly underfunded. With 12 different types of childhood cancer (and dozens of subtypes) some of the rarest of these cancers can go decades without any progress. Current treatment protocols cause long-term chronic health issues including organ damage, fertility issues, and even secondary cancers.
Solution: Fund pediatric childhood cancer research initiatives that pinpoint less toxic, more effective treatments.Research has significantly improved childhood cancer survival rates, with the overall five-year survival rate rising from under 60% in the 1970s to over 80% today. This instills hope in our vision: a world where every child is cured of cancer, enabling them to lead long, healthy lives.
