"For some children with cancer, today's treatments aren't enough." As Austin bravely fights against a brain tumor, his story underscores the need for new discoveries in childhood cancer research.

Every child deserves better: treatments that are more effective, less toxic, and capable of targeting the cancers that currently have too few options. That's why CURE invests in innovative childhood cancer research. Over the last decade, CURE has invested millions of dollars in research designed to improve outcomes for children facing cancer, funding both discoveries that can impact treatment in the near future and research focused on the hardest-to-treat cancers that still don't have effective answers. In 2026 alone, CURE committed $5.7 million to 17 research projects across leading institutions throughout the country. From advancing more precise therapies with fewer long-term side effects to pursuing breakthroughs for cancers that still lack effective treatment options, CURE funds the research children need today and the discoveries that could change what's possible tomorrow. #CUREChildhoodCancer #ChildhoodCancerAwarenessMonth #ChildhoodCancerAwareness #ChildhoodCancerResearch #ChildhoodCancerWarriors
