Every day, there are 43 children diagnosed with cancer, a fatal class of diseases that involves the out-of-control growth of cells. While 40,000 of those diagnosed children undergo treatment each year, 12% of them do not survive. The disease is affecting children of different genders, ethnic groups, and socio-economic statuses. Its reach is so wide and its effects so grave that many caregivers, research organizations, charities, and families are trying to raise more awareness about it.
