Children's Cancer Partners of the Carolinas

About this Organization

Cancer is the #1 disease killer of children in America, devastating entire families. 1 in 5 children do not survive, and children of rural or poor families face 3X greater risk for missed or late diagnosis, under treatment, relapse or death. More than 200 SC children are diagnosed each year, joining over 3,000 already in treatment or survivorship. Household income plummets while treatment travel costs soar, and most families need help urgently. There is only one pediatric oncology facility in the Midlands, with limited services, so children must be transported to Charleston or Greenville. If they require specialized care, they're often flown to New York, Texas, Pennsylvania, or beyond for more specialized treatments. We have 56 Midlands families depending on us right now, one who just lost their child, and the National Cancer Institute population models project 20-22 more diagnoses there each year.
