September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month

This September, we unite for one purpose: to bring hope, strength, and healing to children battling cancer and their families.

Every 3 minutes, a family’s life is turned upside down when they hear the four devastating words, “Your child has cancer.” At Keaton’s Child Cancer Alliance, we believe that every child deserves a fighting chance – and you can help make that a reality. 

Join us in our mission to Strike Out Kids’ Cancers. From bowling to donating to spreading awareness, there are countless ways you can make an impact. This month, your involvement means more than ever. Let’s come together, raise our voices, and take action to ensure no child or family faces cancer alone.
