September 2022- $50,000 in funds raised in 2022 were awarded to our research partner, Beat Childhood Cancer to fund the IN:Formation project!
The IN:Formation Project uses advanced genomic sequencing to reveal the mechanics, drivers, and targets the genetic makeup of each child's unique tumor. Participation includes access to a molecular tumor board who can synthesize powerful insights to help personalize each child's treatment. The goal is to contribute to advancements in less-toxic, more precise, and more effective treatments for solid tumor cancers.
We are so grateful to be able to provide the much-needed funds to Beat Childhood Cancer, to make a real difference in the lives and treatment of children battling neuroblastoma right now, and it is all thanks to our incredible community of support that we were able to do so!
December 2021- $50,000 grant to fund precision medicine (genomics) awarded to our research partner, Beat Childhood Cancer!
This award, raised during our last two fundraising events will be specifically utilized for the precision medicine program, developed by Beat Childhood Cancer. It will provide genomic sequencing for children newly diagnosed with neuroblastoma. The critical information provided as a result of this sequencing will allow for precision, targeted treatment tailored to the child's specific tumor!
We are extremely grateful for every donor and sponsor who chose to believe in us and our mission. Thank you for making our 5 year goal happen in just 3 years! Because of you, we are able to continue on this journey fighting neuroblastoma in sweet Maxwell's memory and we are eternally grateful!
