The Hope & Heroes Children's Cancer Fund exclusively supports the medical treatment of children with cancer and their families.  Our beneficiary is the Herbert Irving Child & Adolescent Oncology Center at  Columbia University Medical Center in Upper Manhattan, NYC, one of the largest and most distinguished pediatric oncology programs in the United States. Philanthropy allows us to support exemplary patient care and specialized programs to assist our patients and their families through the cancer journey. Our young patients have free access to complementary and alternative medicine (massage, acupuncture, aromatherapy, etc.), counseling and emotional support, novel drugs through clinical trials for hard to treat pediatric cancers and survivorship wellness initiatives. These programs cannot exist without public and private support.
