We were honored to once again cover this year’s Maddie’s Promise Gala and put together this highlight video recapping the event.
Maddie’s Promise is a non-profit organization that funds impactful research for rare pediatric cancers.
Maddie’s Promise is more than a tribute to a beautiful and beautifully strong eleven-year-old girl gone too soon; it’s a rally cry to push rare childhood cancer research forward — creating tangible, life-saving treatments along the way.
Funding and research for treatments for rare pediatric cancers have been left behind, and Maddie’s Promise is doing its part to honor Maddie by closing the funding gap.
Unlike many adult cancers, rare pediatric cancers have barely moved the needle in terms of emerging treatments. For instance, the rhabdomyosarcoma prognosis has been the same since 1980. Lacking financial support by big businesses that prioritize profitability in numbers, breakthroughs are waiting on the sidelines.
It was a great night as Maddie’s Promise raised awareness and funding for cancer research and treatment and hopefully are one step closer to a cure for rare pediatric cancers.
