Karis’ Cause: Help Take The STING Out Of Cancer!

KarisThe American Childhood Cancer Organization (ACCO) is so very pleased to introduce Karis’ Cause, a Founding Hope partner in the fight for a cure for childhood cancer and an organization dedicated to making the lives of children with cancer better by providing assistance and a sense of relief to families whose lives have been changed forever by childhood cancer. Watch this great video to learn more about Karis!

Karis was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia in September 2014, and during her long stay at Nationwide Children’s Hospital (NCH), Karis and her family realized that they could not have navigated the shock of such a terrible diagnosis, the difficult world of childhood cancer, and the long days and nights in the hospital without the help, assistance, and support of family and friends. Because they didn’t have to go through it alone, they have dedicated themselves and their organization to ensure that other families touched by childhood cancer get the same love, assistance, and support that they received. They hope that you will join them in taking the STING out of childhood cancer with your help and support as well!
