¿Sabías? Cada año en los EE. UU., aproximadamente 15,780 niños entre las edades de nacimiento y 19 años son diagnosticados con cáncer. De eso, más de 800 padres en todo el norte de California escucharán las palabras "Su hijo tiene cáncer".
El cáncer infantil ocurre con regularidad, al azar y no discrimina por grupo étnico, clase socioeconómica o región geográfica.
Es por eso que cada septiembre nos tomamos el tiempo para crear conciencia y difundir información sobre el cáncer infantil.

In honor of Brain Cancer Awareness Month, we’d like to introduce you to Keaton’s Kiddo Emily, a remarkable young fighter who has been part of our Keaton’s Child Cancer Alliance family since 2018. “Our journey began in Aug 2018, Emily our 8-year-old was waking up everyday with headaches and throwing up in the morning. After a CT Scan, we were told a MRI was needed as they saw a mass in her brain. Worse fear ever is hearing they found a mass, and you would need to be admitted….
Thanks to your support, a family preparing for a four-month stay in the Bay Area for a life-saving stem cell transplant now has the essential items they need, including diapers, Visa gift cards, luggage, and clothing. Your kindness allows them to focus entirely on their child’s treatment without the added burden of securing basic necessities.
