Support Care and Cures for Childhood Cancer Awareness Month: Make 3X the Impact!
Cancer is the leading cause of death by disease in children under age 15. We have an important goal to raise $15,000 by September 30 to support care and create life-saving treatments for the kids who need it most. And the Association of Auxiliaries for Children will match every gift 3X, up to $5000—but only until midnight tonight!!
When you give to Lucile Packard Children's Hospital Stanford, you hand a childhood back to a sick kid and their family. Kids like Patrick, who was diagnosed with T-cell Lymphoblastic Lymphoma (TLL) when he was 13 years old.
When Patrick was just 13 years old, he was diagnosed with T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (TLL). After Patrick received nine months of chemotherapy in Texas, the family moved to California for work. They soon came to Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital Stanford.
By age 14, he had undergone more than 100 chemotherapy treatments with us. And by age 15, earlier this year, Parick celebrated the end of his chemotherapy treatment! Today, Patrick is doing great, and he will continue to have follow-up appointments and procedures with us every 6 months.
Patrick’s entire family is grateful for the care they’ve received at Packard Children’s—and for the donors like you who make cancer research and care possible so that one day children will not have to go through what Patrick has faced.
