Watching children suffer through toxic chemotherapy and radiation in order to have a fighting chance at growing up is not the path we should continue on. We have to find a better cure.
Only 3 new treatments have been developed specifically for pediatric cancers since 1980. Children deserve to THRIVE, not just survive. If any child is running out of treatment options, we are failing.
These outdated toxic treatments are very devastating, causing severe physical and emotional side effects for these children and their families
Over 2/3 of childhood cancer survivors will suffer from chronic health problems for the rest of their lives, including possible infertility, heart damage, chronic pain and more
The National Cancer Institute deems childhood cancer research “rare” and gives research a mere 3.8% of the annual budget. Treatment advancement has been relatively stagnant for decades – these children deserve more forward progress.
Worldwide, a child is diagnosed with cancer every three minutes. That’s more than 300,000 children a year
Every day, 43 children in the United States are diagnosed with cancer. 20% of those children will not survive it
1,800 children die from cancer each year in the US. It remains the leading cause of death by disease for children
Every donation helps us funds the most promising childhood cancer research. Together, we will save and improve the lives of children and families that need a team like us to truly compete in the battle against childhood cancer.
From August 2020 to November 2024, Fourth and Gold has funded $351,000 in pediatric cancer research grants and will continue to do so until we reach our goal of finding and funding a humane cure for childhood cancer.
