“Despite her cancer diagnosis at five years old and the severe treatments she continues to recieve, Audrey spreads joy and inspires others. No child should have to endure what our child is going through. With SKC’s committment, we hope we are closer to finding cures and creating safer medical treatments for this terrible disease.” — Jennifer DeShetler, Audrey’s mom
ABOUT SOLVING KIDS’ CANCER
Founded in 2007 by two fathers who lost their children to cancer, Solving Kids’ Cancer® (SKC) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to significantly improving survivorship of the deadliest childhood cancers by finding, funding, and advocating for breakthrough treatment options. Headquartered in New York City, SKC’s impact is now worldwide with clinical trials launched across the US and throughout Europe. Over the last decade, SKC has funded 34 scientific projects specifically targeted at developing new treatment options for kids. SKC — independent of any single researcher, institution, or consortium — objectively invests in only the most impactful research projects.
