Who We Are

St. Baldrick's Foundation is a volunteer-powered charity committed to funding the most promising research to fmd cures for childhood cancers and give survivors long and healthy lives. We are the largest private (non-government) funder of childhood cancer research grants. By supporting St. Baldrick's, you help grow research that is needed now more than ever.

Investing in Hope

• Worldwide, a child is diagnosed every two minutes. One in five will not survive.
• More children are lost to cancer in the U.S. than to any other disease -in fact, more than many other childhood diseases combined.
• Currently, only 4% of U.S. federal funding is solely dedicated to childhood cancer research.

"We are entering an era of unbelievable scientific discovery. But if we don't turn those discoveries into cures, we will have failed a generation of children."
-Dr. Peter Adamson
CHAIR OF THE CHILDREN'S ONCOLOGY GROUP (COG)
The COG is funded yearly by St. Baldrick's through our multi-million dollar cooperative research grant.
