The 3rd annual Kids Cancel Cancer,
Benefiting
The Samuel Waxman Cancer Research Foundation (SWCRF)

 Saturday October 26th, 2024 at Frames Bowling Lounge
 in New York City.

In addition to raising crucial funds for pediatric cancer research, the event will be an entertaining evening of bowling, ping pong, billiards, karaoke, games, auctions, great food and more.
 
“Unlike, other fundraising events put on by SWCRF, this one was created and is being organized by kids,” said Marion Waxman, who is spearheading the event. 

“Last year’s event raised more than $100,000 allowing SWCRF to support the work of two leading pediatric cancer investigators – one based at St. Jude’s Research Hospital and the other at Schneider Children’s Medical Center in Israel.
We hope to exceed this amount this year.”
 
While pediatric cancer deaths have declined by 65 percent over the past few decades, cancer remains a leading cause of death for children and teenagers. In fact, it is estimated that 10,500 new cases of cancer will be diagnosed among children (birth to 14 years old) each year, and about 1,190 children will die from the disease.
 
Additionally, a recent study published in Aging AND Cancer found that childhood cancer survivors experience serious health issues in adult life, much earlier than their counterparts who did not have cancer as a kid.  “This is why prioritizing research to develop new treatments for childhood cancer is so urgent,” said Mrs. Waxman.
