We’re Committed to Ending Childerhood Cancer

Our primary goal is to help raise the necessary funds for cancer research, which is donated to the Hematology/Oncology department at the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, Ontario.

  • Funding breakthrough childhood leukemia research
  • Diagnose faster so kids feel less stress and doctors can act sooner.
  • Treat smarter with less pain, fewer side effects, and quicker healing.
  • Predict better by knowing what’s ahead so SickKids can fight illness stronger.
