About this organization
Mission
The mission of Cannonball Kids’ cancer Foundation (CKc) is to fund innovative, accessible research for children fighting cancer to provide better treatments and quality of life, and to educate for change. Our vision is to find cures for all childhood cancers. Pediatric cancer is the number one killer by disease of children. Only three new treatments have been approved by the FDA in the past 25 years. 25 years! This is unacceptable. Funding new, innovative research is the only solution. The life-saving trials our children need are largely funded by individuals who donate to organizations like CKc. Our foundation is committed to seeking and funding novel research that will truly move the needle in pediatric cancer treatment options. We CAN make a difference.
