MADDIE PROMISED TO HELP OTHERS.
We’re living up to it by funding impactful research for rare pediatric cancers.
Maddie’s Promise is more than a tribute to a beautiful strong eleven-year-old girl gone too soon; it’s a rally cry to push rare childhood cancer research forward - creating tangible, life-saving treatments along the way.
Home to eight Nobel Prize winners, CSHL researchers and local donors came together for the first annual tree lighting ceremony to commemorate Pediatric Cancer Research Awareness Month.
FACING RHABDOMYOSARCOMA with COURAGE AND creativity: maddie’s story
Madelyn “Maddie” McCoy made a promise to help others. Until the very end, she was living up to it — creating artwork and a plan to sell it to help those in need. Using her bravery and kindness as inspiration, Maddie’s Promise strives to make Maddie’s next chapter one of positive change for young children battling enormous odds.
ALL PEDIATRIC cancerS deserve RESEARCH OPPORTUNITIES, NO MATTER HOW RARE
Unlike many adult cancers, rare pediatric cancers have barely moved the needle in terms of emerging treatments. For instance, the rhabdomyosarcoma prognosis has been the same since 1980. Lacking financial support by big businesses that prioritize profitability in numbers, breakthroughs are waiting in the sidelines.
Maddie’s Promise is not only highlighting this problem; we are part of the solution, actively funding real and potentially very impactful research. (Pictured below "Maddie’s Project" at The Children’s Cancer Therapy Development Institute.) See more about our impact here: OUR IMPACT
