Every day, there are almost 800 new cases of childhood cancer around the world, and last year Jaxson was part of this number. This adds up to an estimated 300,000 new cases of cancer that affect children under the age of 20 each year worldwide. And yet, childhood cancer is vastly and consistently underfunded with less than 4% of the federal government's total funding for cancer research dedicated to childhood cancers each year.Today, the money you donate has the potential to make a huge difference in the lives of kids with cancer (and their families). Your donation will fund research into safer, more effective treatments and cures. Give today!

Her spirit and determination inspired others to support her cause, and when she passed away at the age of 8, she had raised $1 million.
