“Until we can give every family good news in the face of a tough diagnosis, until every child with every form of cancer can hear us say, ‘We’ve got this and you’re going to be OK,’ then we need to aim higher. We must do more until there is no more to do. Philanthropy enables us to fulfill our responsibility to keep raising the bar.”
