About Us

Our Mission

Our primary objective is to obtain state funding for childhood cancer research.  

Why do we Advocate?

Our kids deserve less invasive treatment options, better medications, better outcomes...period!  As advocates, it's our job to speak up on their behalf, especially for those that do not have a voice.  

Our Team

Moms, dads, family members and friends from the state of Iowa who's lives have been impacted by childhood cancer.
