Where does my donation go?
The American Childhood Cancer Organization (ACCO) was founded in 1970 and is the oldest and largest non-profit organization dedicated to childhood cancer in the United States. We advocate at both the federal and state levels and collaborate with the World Health Organization to improve the global cure rate for childhood cancer. Notably, ACCO is the only national non-governmental organization actively working at the state level. Since 2018, ACCO has secured more than $120 million in state funding for childhood cancer research across seven states.
Donations also provide children with cancer and their families the informational resources needed to understand childhood cancer treatment in age-appropriate, easy-to-comprehend terminology. Education of even the littlest cancer patient is essential to understanding the difficult battle ahead. Our medical play kit provides children the opportunity to practice treatment procedures on ACCO’s mascot “Cozy” to empower them before receiving the treatments themselves.
ACCO is proud to support families with our resources, and we love sharing about the positive impact they have made in the lives of children with cancer.
