Programs & Activities

Program 1

$6.0M

Education and awareness program:in addition to funding research and offering support programs, we generate awareness about the need for childhood cancer research and provide educational resources for researchers. We reach millions of people through our website, digital and social media platforms, and in-kind television and print advertising to share the stories of kids, families, and researchers. We're also proud to support the cancer survivorship conference, the mark e. Nesbit lectureship in pediatric oncology, and the norma k.c. Ramsay, md, distinguished visiting professor lectureship series. These bring nationally recognized childhood cancer experts to minnesota to speak on current survivorship, clinical and research issues, as well as build new research collaborations.

Program 2

$657K

Family support programs:our dedicated family programs improve the well-being of kids and families as they navigate the difficult experiences of cancer treatment, survivorship, or bereavement. These offerings include: - the big dreams tour - a creative outlet that reduces isolation by leveraging ar, vr, and xr technology to provide pediatric cancer patients an opportunity to game together monthly and create their own animated music video, video game, or vfx video; including community events where their creations are brought to life in virginia, michigan, maine and minnesota. - camp norden - in-person and virtual five-day summer camps are designed especially to meet the unique needs of children who have been diagnosed with cancer and support friendship-building, solidarity with peers, increased self-esteem, and a feeling of independence. These camps foster community and eliminate financial or geographical barriers to attend.-cc bear- our cure cancer "c.c." bear is ready to comfort and care for those who need him most at no cost to families. 619 bears were sent to children with cancer, and their siblings.
