Donate Now...to
help kids with cancer!
Cancer is NOT contagious. Support of the family
IS contagious and very much needed from everyone including friends,
neighbors, and entire communities. When you know a child who is
diagnosed with cancer, be the first one to offer support - others
will follow!
Childhood cancer is the #1 disease killer of children ages 0-14
in North America.
In South Carolina, there are between 150-200 new
cases of pediatric cancer per year. This number has increased 1%
every year for the past 20 years.
About 4,000 children die from cancer a year.
That's 11 children every single day, every single year.
Approximately 78%
of all children diagnosed with cancer will survive.
Leukemia
is the most common and the most curable form of pediatric cancer. |
