Chicago is helping conquer kids’ cancer
Radius Search
Since 2004, St. Baldrick’s head-shaving events in Chicago have raised nearly $60 million for childhood cancer research!
The St. Baldrick’s Foundation has funded more than $325 million in childhood cancer research grants, more than any other organization except the U.S. government. Many of these grants fund research in Chicago and surrounding areas in Illinois, including research at the University of Illinois – Chicago, The University of Chicago, the Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital, and many other local institutions. These grants help give more kids access to clinical trials, which are often their best hope for a cure, train the next generation of pediatric oncologists, and fund specific childhood cancer research projects.
