Our Statement on Transitions in Care
In a September 2024 statement, Children’s Cancer Cause called on the greater healthcare system and provider community to work toward the successful health care transition of more than 500,000 childhood cancer survivors, a growing population with unique long-term care needs. Among the statement’s recommendations is a call for the development of a consensus process to determine best practices and standards of care for effective healthcare transitions for survivors of childhood and adolescent cancers.
Accepting Applications for 2025 Scholarships
Children’s Cancer Cause, with generous support from Hyundai Hope on Wheels, is pleased to again offer academic scholarships for childhood cancer survivors, plus the opportunity to gain valuable cancer advocacy experience.
In 2025, we will award up to 25 survivors with scholarships ranging from $1,500 to $5,000. The deadline to apply is Sunday, March 16, 2025.
#GoldStreamTeam for Charity Streamers
The Gold Stream Team is a community of streamers dedicated to supporting Children’s Cancer Cause. Streamers use their platforms to inspire viewers to donate and engage in our vision of a long and healthy life for every child with cancer, all while creating enjoyable content.
Originally focused on gaming, streams now include cooking, crafting, talk shows, and more.
25 Years as a Voice of Children with Cancer
Children’s Cancer Cause was founded in April of 1999 to give a voice to the unique perspectives and urgent concerns of childhood cancer patients, survivors and their families — a voice that was absent in national debates on cancer policy at that time.
