CHILDHOOD CANCER RESEARCH - OUR COMMITMENT TO CHILDHOOD CANCER RESEARCH IS UNIQUE AS WE FUND ORIGINAL AND TRANSFORMATIVE RESEARCH IN AREAS WHERE THERE IS HIGH NEED AND HIGH POTENTIAL FOR IMPACT.
ART IS MY LIFE - WE BELIEVE EVERY CHILD SHOULD HAVE ACCESS TO ART AS A PART OF THEIR PLAN OF CARE. WE HAVE EMBEDDED AN ART THERAPIST AT TEXAS CHILDREN'S CANCER CENTER TO BRING MEANINGFUL OPPORTUNITIES FOR CREATIVE EXPRESSION AND HEALING TO CHILDREN AND FAMILIES AFFECTED BY CANCER. A MULTI-YEAR ART THERAPY FELLOWSHIP HAS BEEN ESTABLISHED AT MOUNT SINAI CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL TO SUPPORT THE NEXT GENERATION OF ART THERAPISTS.IN ADDITION WE PROVIDE ONGOING ART PARTIES AT NUMEROUS CHILDREN'S CANCER CENTERS WHICH ENGAGE PROFESSIONAL ARTISTS/ARTS EDUCATORS IN THE CONCEPTUALIZATION OF UNIQUE PROJECTS FOR EACH OF THESE EVENTS AND INVITE THE PARTICIPATION OF VOLUNTEERS FROM THE COMMUNITY FOR THE EVENT ITSELF.
LET THERE BE GOLD - EVERY SEPTEMBER, WE DEEPEN OUR COMMITMENT TO THIS CAUSE THROUGH OUR PUBLIC AWARENESS CAMPAIGN CALLED LET THERE BE GOLD. WE HONOR EVERY CHILD, FAMILY, AND ANGEL DURING THE MONTH OF SEPTEMBER BY RAISING AWARENESS AND EDUCATION AROUND CHILDHOOD CANCER SO THAT OUR CHILDREN WILL HAVE BRIGHTER DAYS AND BETTER TREATMENTS.
