THEY CAN'T WIN THE FIGHT WITHOUT YOU
ABOUT US
Founded on the belief that no parent should have to choose between their child's treatment and their family's basic needs. Kids Cancer Fund was born out of a dual necessity:
immediate compassion and a permanent cure.
While we work tirelessly to fund the breakthrough research that will one day end cancer, we remain dedicated to the families fighting in the trenches today - providing the urgent financial support they need to focus on what matters most: their child's recovery.
Be a hero to a child in need.
Help them win the fight.
Why We Do It
Cancer is the leading cause of death by disease for children in America. Twenty percent of children with cancer in the U.S. will not survive it. Cancer is diagnosed each year in more than 300,000 children worldwide. The average age of a child diagnosed with cancer is six.
When a child is diagnosed with cancer, life changes not only for the child but for the whole family. This is why Kids Cancer Fund is here to help. Kids need big heroes like you. Help us help them fight by donating today.
How It Started
Kids Cancer Fund was founded in 2012 by Jackson Rodgers in memory of his childhood friend.
Rodgers is a global biotech executive with more than 20 years of leadership experience with biologics, peptides, and immunotherapies. He has held senior roles across the biotech and pharmaceutical landscape, guiding complex organizations and programs from development through market launch.
Beyond industry leadership, Rodgers is deeply committed to service and education. He is the author of several educational e‑books focused on healthcare and life sciences topics.
Our Vision:
A world where every child survives cancer, and no family faces the fight alone.
