Read, share, and support for Childhood Cancer Awareness Month!

Every year, approximately 15,000 children are diagnosed with cancer in the United States. During September, Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, you can make a difference by learning, sharing, and supporting.

A childhood cancer diagnosis changes everything. For families like All-Star River’s, that change has happened not once, but twice.

Between hospital stays, treatments, and bills, families are overwhelmed. Many report annual incomes under $45,000, while 75 percent are forced to take leave from work to care for their child. A third of families travel more than two hours for care, which can quickly stretch already tight budgets.

You care about helping these families, and it should be easy to make a difference. We hope it is!

How to help kids with cancer this September

• Read a story. Learn how childhood cancer impacts families like River’s.
• Donate. Every gift during the month of September is MATCHED dollar-for-dollar thanks to Arby's Foundation up to $40,000. Double your impact today!
• Spread the word. Whether it's a social post, this blog, or an All-Star story, each share helps connect people to ways they can help kids with cancer and their families. 

Together, this September, we will continue to step up to help families pay for everyday essentials like housing, food, and transportation costs.
