"Kids Cancel Cancer" Event by Teen Advocates to Fund Pediatric Cancer Research

Written by Chris Boyle  |  03. August 2022

Kids Cancel Cancer is the latest fundraising event to benefit the Samuel Waxman Cancer Research Foundation (SWCRF), an international organization committed to funding world-class cancer research around the world. Unlike, other fundraising events, this event was created and is being organized by adolescents to specifically raise money for pediatric cancer research. The Foundation anticipates raising $100,000 and naming a pediatric research grant in honor of the co-chairs and committee. This amount will help support the work of two investigators for up to two years.
 
In addition to raising vital funds for groundbreaking research, Kids Cancel Cancer will be an entertaining day of arcades, miniature golf, great food, raffle prizes, and more. Parents are more than welcome to attend too.
 
This inaugural event will take place on August 17th, 2022 at the Clubhouse in East Hampton from 5:00pm – 9:00pm. Tickets are $100 for kids, $125 for parents (adults). For more information, or to buy tickets or donate, visit www.waxmancancer.org/kids-cancel-cancer.
