Organizations Filed Purposes: THE MISSION OF THE PABLOVE FOUNDATION IS TO INVEST IN UNDERFUNDED, CUTTING-EDGE PEDIATRIC CANCER RESEARCH, AND TO IMPROVE THE LIVES OF CHILDREN LIVING WITH CANCER THROUGH THE ARTS.

INVEST IN CUTTING EDGE PEDIATRIC CANCER RESEARCH; IMPROVE LIVES FOR CHILDREN LIVING WITH CANCER THROUGH PHOTOGRAPHY.

PABLOVE'S POWERED BY PABLOVE CHILDHOOD CANCER RESEARCH GRANTS PROGRAM IS FOCUSED ON AWARDING $50,000 SEED GRANTS TO EARLY-CAREER, DARING INVESTIGATORS, GIVING THEM THE OPPORTUNITY TO PROVE THEIR THEORIES AND LEVERAGE THEIR FINDINGS FOR MORE FUNDING. PABLOVE'S DREAM IS TO ENSURE THAT NO BRILLIANT, PROMISING SCIENTIST GOES UNFUNDED IN THEIR INITIAL PHASE OF RESEARCH, BECAUSE THERE ARE KIDS WAITING FOR THE CURES THEY MIGHT UNCOVER. IN 2019, PABLOVE AWARDED FOUR (4) POWERED BY PABLOVE SEED GRANTS AND EXTENDED FUNDING FOR AN ADDITIONAL ONGOING PROJECT. PABLOVE'S RESEARCH IS CONDUCTED IN PRESTIGIOUS INSTITUTIONS ACROSS THE NATION: BOSTON CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL, BOSTON, MA; BAYLOR COLLEGE OF MEDICINE, HOUSTON TX; AND CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL LOS ANGELES, LOS ANGELES, CA TO NAME JUST A FEW. EACH PROJECT IS FOCUSED ON A DIFFERENT RARE CANCER INCLUDING WILMS TUMOR AND EWING'S SARCOMA.

PABLOVE SHUTTERBUGS IS A PARTICIPATORY ARTS EDUCATION PROGRAM THAT LETS KIDS JUST BE KIDS AND FIND THEIR CREATIVE VOICE THROUGH PHOTOGRAPHY. LIVING WITH CANCER IS NO FUN - ESPECIALLY FOR A CHILD. DAYS ARE FILLED WITH DOCTORS' APPOINTMENTS FOR WHICH KIDS ARE PULLED OUT OF SCHOOL, THUS LIMITING THEIR CONTACT WITH THE OUTSIDE WORLD. THAT'S WHERE PABLOVE SHUTTERBUGS COMES IN. BY PARTNERING WITH ART INSTITUTIONS SUCH AS THE MUSEUM OF MODERN ART (MOMA) IN NEW YORK CITY OR THE HUNTINGTON LIBRARY, ART MUSEUM AND BOTANICAL GARDENS IN LOS ANGELES, AND SAWYER YARDS IN HOUSTON, STUDENTS GET AN OPPORTUNITY TO ESCAPE AND FOCUS ON THE TASK AT HAND: LEARNING ABOUT PHOTOGRAPHY. THROUGH THIS PROGRAM, STUDENTS ARE GUIDED THROUGH THE BASIC PRINCIPLES OF PHOTOGRAPHY, INCLUDING COMPOSITION AND LIGHTING, IN A SUPPORTIVE AND FUN ENVIRONMENT. EACH WEEK, A PROJECT IS ASSIGNED WHICH GIVES STUDENTS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR AN INCREASED SENSE OF ACCOMPLISHMENT AND CONFIDENCE. EVERY PABLOVE SHUTTERBUGS SESSION CULMINATES IN A GRADUATION AND YEARLY STUDENT GALLERY SHOW AT A PROFESSIONAL GALLERY SPACE TO CELEBRATE THE YOUNG PHOTOGRAPHERS. ALL PRINT SALES AT PABLOVE'S ANNUAL GALLERY SHOWS DIRECTLY SUPPORT PABLOVE'S POWERED BY PABLOVE CHILDHOOD CANCER RESEARCH GRANTS PROGRAM. PABLOVE SHUTTERBUGS IS LOCATED IN SEVEN CITIES AND SIX STATES ACROSS THE COUNTRY: LOS ANGELES AND SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA (CA), SEATTLE (WA), BOSTON (MA), NEW YORK (NY), HOUSTON (TX), AND NEW ORLEANS (LA). IN 2019, PABLOVE SHUTTERBUGS LAUNCHED ITS ADVANCED PHOTOGRAPHY CLASS IN NY. PREVIOUSLY, THIS CLASS WAS ONLY OFFERED IN LOS ANGELES. IN THE ADVANCED CLASSES, STUDENTS LEARN TO WORK WITH PHOTOGRAPHY AS A MEANS TO ADVOCATE FOR CANCER RESEARCH AND EXPLORE THEIR IDENTITY WITH CANCER FOR THE FIRST TIME. AS OUR STUDENTS TELL US "I CAN USE PHOTOGRAPHY TO TALK ABOUT CANCER WHEN I DON'T KNOW HOW TO EXPRESS MYSELF WITH WORDS." ADDITIONALLY, PABLOVE SHUTTERBUGS HELD ITS 4TH ALUMNI SUMMER CAMP IN LAKE ARROWHEAD, CA WHERE STUDENTS FROM ACROSS THE COUNTRY COME TO LEARN INTERMEDIATE PHOTOGRAPHY LESSONS AND TO PARTICIPATE IN NORMAL CAMP ACTIVITIES. IN TOTAL, WE ARE PROUD THAT IN THE 2019 CALENDAR YEAR, WE SERVED OVER 170 CHILDREN LIVING WITH CANCER THROUGH OUR NATIONWIDE PABLOVE SHUTTERBUGS PROGRAMS.
