Mission Statement
Mobilize San Diego to accelerate cures for cancer in our lifetime.
About This Cause
Curebound unites San Diego’s top institutions in a collaborative effort to accelerate cancer research into cures. Founded upon a deeply held belief that cures are possible, we believe that the next decade will be critical to the development of sophisticated, individualized cancer treatment and the largest opportunity ever seen to advance the way we treat, and ultimately cure cancer. All of this is possible in San Diego. San Diego is recognized as one of the largest and fastest growing life-science communities in the country and uniquely positioned as a global center for cancer research, innovation and care. The city is home to three NCI-designated cancer centers, internationally recognized biotech research institutions, top clinical care hospitals and nearly 1000 life-science companies. Headquartered amongst this powerful scientific hub, Curebound is the catalyst to bring these resources together to drive this work faster and further- to expedite discovery and improve the lives of patients today. In 2021, two highly respected local cancer organizations, Padres Pedal the Cause and Immunotherapy Foundation, united to form Curebound with an initial goal to raise and invest $100+ million into collaborative cancer research in San Diego. Over the last decade, these two organizations have collectively awarded over $20 million in funding for 80+ research grants that explore 20+ types of adult and pediatric cancers, including 6 pioneering clinical trials. To accelerate its impact, Curebound launched a Founder’s Fund campaign in 2021, which has since raised over $25 million in new commitments - bringing cumulative commitments since 2013 to over $50 million. Guided by a world-class Scientific Advisory Board, Curebound will award its next wave of cancer research grants beginning in December. The first Cure Prize, a highly anticipated multi-million grant award for innovative, ground-breaking ideas intended to change the course of cancer research and care in San Diego will be awarded in early 2023.
