Join us in raising money in honor of Lucy! In 2019, Lucy was diagnosed with Ewing’s Sarcoma. What her parents thought was a sports injury turned out to be every parent’s worst nightmare.
After a grueling 1-year battle, – 14 Rounds of chemo, 43 rounds of radiation, and requiring 30 blood transfusions – Lucy was declared NED in 2020 and mercifully remains so today.
Today, Lucy loves volleyball, swimming, her dog Scruff, her family, acting and interior design. Her happy places include the beach (boogie board queen!) or curled up with a book (what bedtime?). She has awesome friends and cousins that keep her giggling.
We hope that Lucy’s cancer is forever in her rearview mirror. For so many kids, that’s not reality. Despite receiving some of the most aggressive chemotherapy available, many kids can never be declared “cured.” And it’s not just unfair — it’s WRONG. Kids deserve cures, but they aren’t getting the investment from Big Pharma or Uncle Sam. So foundations like Little Warrior have to exist to fill the funding void.
Please join us in fundraising, in honor of Lucy. In thanksgiving for her health. In memory of those who were taken too soon. And in anticipation of the next family who faces this nightmare.
The Little Warrior Foundation is a national cancer research foundation with a mission to find a permanent cure for Ewing Sarcoma. We fund research and clinical trials that have a high-potential for saving kids’ lives.
Since our inception in 2020, we have funded over $1,000,00 in research and clinical trial grants at Cleveland Clinic, Childhood Cancer Treatment Development Institute, Memorial Sloan Kettering, Levine Children’s Hospital, and more.
As a scrappy, low-overhead organization, you can be assured that your donations are being put to work on near-term solutions for kids and young adults facing Ewing Sarcoma.
