Rally Foundation for Childhood Cancer Research

4.5 Glassdoor

Rally Foundation for Childhood Cancer Research is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to raising awareness and funding for childhood cancer research. With the support of passionate volunteers across the country, Rally works to find better treatments with fewer long-term side effects and ultimately, cures.Every school day in America, 47 children are diagnosed with cancer. It remains the number one disease killer of kids in the United States, yet childhood cancers receive only a small fraction of federal research funding. Kids don’t get adult cancers, and they need treatment options designed specifically for them.Rally helps bridge this critical funding gap. We award competitive research grants through a rigorous national peer-review process and, according to audited financials, operate at 93 percent efficiency to ensure donor dollars make the greatest possible impact.When a parent hears the words “your child has cancer,” Rally is working to make sure there is hope and a plan for what comes next.
