Inspire
Cutting-Edge Scientific ResearchCollaborations in New York City.
There is no other city in the United States that is home to so many premier research institutions. The Foundation emboldens the City's best research hospitals to collaborate, leveraging their resources and talent for maximum results.
Invest
in State-of-the-Art Technology
New technologies—microscopes, cell sorters, DNA sequencers—will lead scientists to medical breakthroughs, but these technologies are expensive and government funds do not support such purchases. New technologies will enable scientists to understand each child’s cancer and customize medical treatments.
Develop
the Next Generation of Physician Scientists
Right now, too few young, bright physician scientists are researching pediatric cancer, resulting in a crisis within the field. The Foundation seeds a fellowship program to award funding to innovative, new scientists who are being overseen by the current leaders in the field.
Promote
Quality of Care for Children with Cancer
Insurance does not support comprehensive quality-of-life initiatives in hospitals. The Foundation funds cutting-edge diagnostic precision medicine and the renovation of dilapidated spaces to improve the quality of the treatment experience for children with cancer.
