About Carter Strong
Our children deserve more than this, Carter deserved more than this. Roughly 4% of the National Cancer Institute's budget is devoted to children's cancers. This tragic reality means that generally families of children fighting cancer or those who have started foundations in their child's memory, are the ones fundraising the difference. Rhabdomyosarcoma specifically hasn't had much research into targeted therapies or drug trials. The Children's Cancer Therapy Development Institute (cc-TDI) is looking to change that. cc-TDI is composed of a team of biologists and engineers working collaboratively to push safe, effective and less toxic drug treatment options into clinical trials for underserved childhood cancers. Their mission is clear: to make ALL childhood cancers universally survivable.
We CAN and SHOULD do better. A cure for RMS is out there and we're on a mission to discover it. Will you help us fund this research and bring better outcomes for children like Carter?
