The Ronan Foundation is dedicated to raising awareness and funding cutting edge research for childhood cancer. We are committed to funding clinical trials to reduce the number of children affected by childhood cancer, increase survival rates and minimize long term medical and psychological effects of treatment.
"Children deserve a chance to live. They deserve to have the chance to grow up - something that so many of us take for granted."
Maya Thompson, Ronan's Mama
We are committed to funding cutting-edge research to improve treatments for children with neuroblastoma. Neuroblastoma is a childhood cancer that most commonly affects kids under 5 years old. It is a super aggressive cancer with a survival rate of less than 60% with current treatment modalities. After initial treatment, there is a 50% chance of relapse and there is no known cure for relapsed neuroblastoma. New, more effective treatments for relapsed neuroblastoma is our top priority.
