PEDIATRIC
CANCER FOUNDATION
Since 1970, Pediatric Cancer Foundation
has raised substantial funds to aid sick
children and those who treat them.
The Foundation has purchased technologically
advanced state-of-the art equipment and
instruments that have enormously enhanced
the success rate in delicate operations
to remove tumors. One of those instruments,
the Harmonic Scapel, was purchased as a
result of last year's Swimathon program,
"Kids Swim for Kids."
Pediatric Cancer Foundation has also funded
new research in childhood tumors and blood
diseases, and promoted parent-patient education
in pediatric hematology, oncology and surgery.
We support a Pediatric Cancer Foundation
In-Patient Unit and PCF Infusion Rooms.
We fund institutions that are leaders in
pediatric cancer research and are centers
to which children from all parts of the
continent come to be diagnosed and treated.
It is our mission to sponsor physicians
and researchers who treat pediatric cancer
patients in hospitals such as Children's
Hospital of New York-Presbyterian (formerly
Babies and Children's Hospital), Memorial
Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, The Hassenfeld
Children's Center at NYU Hospital's Center,
Schneider Children's Hospital at North Shore
LIJ Health Systems, and Maria Fareri Children's
Hospital at Westchester Medical Center.
Pediatric Cancer Foundation graciously thanks
all of our contributors for their generous
financial support.
