They are even more difficult because they occur quickly and unexpectedly. The Foundation, by responding rapidly to help cover these expenses, helps the child by bolstering the family. The only requirements are that the grant directly benefit the child with cancer or the child's family, and that funds are available. Children in active treatment and families in the Washington metropolitan area are given priority. The Foundation is a non-profit, all volunteer, public foundation.
All contributions directly aid children with cancer.
