About This Cause

The American Childhood Cancer Organization is the largest national, grassroots organization standing at the forefront of the battle against childhood cancer. Founded by parents who themselves have faced this challenge, and joined by a national community of families and survivors, the ACCO is uniquely committed to improving the lives of children and families living with cancer and its long-term side effects, as well as bringing ever-greater awareness to the need for new, more effective treatments appropriate for cancer’s youngest warriors. From providing the highest quality resources designed for children and families, to coordinating local assistance to families in need, to leading national (and even international) advocacy campaigns for greater awareness and ever-more research, the ACCO is dedicated to giving every child facing childhood cancer a fighting chance at a healthy, happy future.
