Get Involved

Cancer is the leading cause of death among children in America, making the quest for better treatments and cures critically important. Beyond this urgent need, there are additional compelling reasons to focus our efforts and philanthropic support on advancing research. Pediatric cancers originate in tissues that are more accessible for observation and analysis, offering valuable insights and serving as an excellent model for understanding cancers that affect individuals of all ages.

Becoming Part of the Solution

We believe that achieving a complete molecular understanding of cancer cells is crucial, and this goal is within reach for the first time in history. Recent advances have provided us with a detailed map of the human genome, offering a baseline of “normalcy” against which deviations can be identified. Additionally, technological breakthroughs now enable scientists to explore the intricate structures and processes of tumor cells like never before.

Many of us have witnessed the suffering cancer inflicts on loved ones. If you have sought answers in the past, now is your chance to contribute to finding those answers. By supporting the Greehey Children’s Cancer Research Institute, you can help drive this critical work forward.

Your donation will aid in attracting top scientists, acquiring state-of-the-art equipment, and integrating these resources effectively. Importantly, every dollar of your contribution will go directly to fund research in one of our dedicated labs, ensuring that your support makes a tangible impact on advancing cancer research.

Why Support Research at Greehey Children’s Cancer Research Institute?

Researchers at Greehey Children’s Cancer Research Institute have pioneered more novel therapies in national trials than any other group in the US. The treatments we have developed have become the standard of care for high-risk solid tumors across the US, Europe, and Asia.
