Expect Miracles Foundation

Expect Miracles Foundation Investing in cancer research & providing financial assistance for young adult cancer survivors.

Expect Miracles Foundation [EMF] is a public charity that fundraises to invest in life-saving cancer research while advancing the financial and emotional health of people impacted by cancer. Our two research funds at Dana-Farber and Memorial Sloan Kettering provide incubation funding to advance research focused on 4 of the greatest challenges in cancer science: early detection, real-time prognosi

s, drug-resistant cancers, and metastatic cancer. EMF’s SAMFund helps young adult cancer survivors regain their financial footing following treatment.

🔬 Last week, our Miracle Makers and top supporters toured the Daniel Heller, PhD Research Lab at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, the beneficiary of Expect Miracles Foundation [EMF]’s Innovation Fund.

Dr. Heller’s team is using nanotechnology to tackle three of cancer research’s biggest challenges: early detection, drug-resistance cancer, and metastatic cancer. Their work includes an AI-powered blood test to detect brain tumors, smarter ways to deliver drugs directly to tumors, and new treatments for previously “undruggable” cancers, bringing promising breakthroughs closer to patients. 🧬

Since our first $30,000 grant in 2015, EMF has provided $3.27 million to Dr. Heller’s Lab at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, including a record $550,000 grant last year. 💙

Thank you to Dr. Heller for welcoming us, and to our supporters and their companies for making this life-saving work possible. ✨
