Childhood Cancer Community Awareness
Educating our community on facts, statistics and the signs and symptoms to look out for is our program goal. By reaching others through school seminars, encouraging kids of all ages to advocate for kids or community events, we can raise awareness on childhood cancer and make a difference.
