National Tackle Kids Cancer Day on September 15th gives you a chance to be part of the cure for pediatric cancer research. Join other Tackle Kids Cancer supporters by volunteering to rally our community and raise the needed funds for pediatric cancer research. Did you know only 4% of federal cancer dollars apply to pediatric cancer research? Finding a cure means more than ever. Tackle Kids Cancer Day gives us a platform for our voices to be heard. Help find a cure for pediatric cancer.
The day supports innovative research and patient care programs at the Children’s Cancer Institute (CCI) at Hackensack University Medical Center. CCI is pioneering over a dozen clinical trials to treat aggressive types of pediatric cancer. Most notably, their extensive pediatric neuro-oncology program is leading the way to establish new protocols in treating this dire diagnosis. Additionally, Tackle Kids Cancer funds the Cure and Beyond Program – one of a handful of survivorship programs for pediatric cancer survivors in the country.
On Tackle Kids Cancer Day, let your support shine through! Gear up and help find a cure for pediatric cancer!
