Every day, there are almost 700 new cases of childhood cancer around the world. This adds up to an estimated 250,000 new cases of cancer affect children under the age of 20 each year worldwide.

My soon to be 16-year-old son, Nate, was diagnosed with Olefactory Neuroblastoma (large malignant tumor in his sinus cavity) on March 27, 2018. Words that no parent ever wants to hear. After a 12-hour surgery at Children's Hospital, and a 12-hour surgery at UPMC Presbyterian, we traveled back and forth to Beaumont Hospital in Royal Oak, Michigan every week all of the summer of 2018 so that he could receive specialized proton radiation therapy. As of October 2018, he has been NED (No Evidence of Disease).

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 go to research into better and safer treatments and more cures. Please don’t make these kids wait longer than they have to and give today!
