In addition to the crushing emotional toll, there is a financial domino effect in a cancer diagnosis. Most often, one parent must leave a job. Some treatments are not fully covered by insurance. It’s expensive to come to the city every day to be with your child – gas costs, parking fees and meals can add up quickly.

The funds that we raise go directly to the families of children with cancer. Our goal is to help the children and their caregivers through this most difficult crisis.
