About National Children's Cancer Society
The mission of The National Children's Cancer Society
is to improve the quality of life for children
with cancer and their families worldwide.
To ensure that every child with cancer is given a chance
at survival, The National Children's Cancer Society was
founded in 1987 to assist children in need of bone marrow
transplants. It has since expanded its program services
to encompass the needs of all children with cancer.
