Curing Kids Cancer was founded in memory of Killian Owen, a young boy lost to leukemia at age nine, and his legacy continues to drive our mission.
Childhood cancer remains the leading cause of death by disease in children under 15 in the United States — but there is hope.
We are funding cutting-edge research that accelerates the discovery of safer, more effective treatments and brings new cures within reach. By investing in innovative science and the brightest minds in pediatric oncology, we are changing outcomes for children today and moving closer to a future where every child survives.
