Learn More Previous slide Next slide Why You’re Crucial to Accelerating Progress Pediatric cancer research receives a minute fraction of the dollars allocated to adult cancer research. The largest single funder, the Federal Government, invests just 4% of its annual cancer research budget in childhood cancer — that is less than $3.00 per child. Researchers rely on private philanthropies like us to fund at least half of all childhood cancer research, but resources limit our impact. In 2022, because of our own funding scarcity, we were only able to fund 3.8 percent of every grant application rated outstanding.
