🎗️ September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month.

-Childhood cancer is the #1 disease-related cause of death among children in the U.S.
-Approximately 1 in 263 children in the U.S. will be diagnosed with cancer before the age of 20.
-Among children and adolescents in the U.S., the most common types of cancer are leukemias, brain and central nervous system tumors, and lymphomas.
-Because of research, tremendous progress has been made in treating and curing some childhood cancers. Progress for others has been limited and for some, there is still no cure.

This September, please consider supporting childhood cancer research at Seattle Children’s with a donation to the Friends for Life Guild. Every gift helps advance research, discover better treatments, and give more children the chance to grow up and thrive.

🎗️ Please donate today and help turn hope into cures.
