FOCUS: CHAMP Cancer Hope & Awareness Month for Pediatrics is a unique organization which draws together non-profits passionate about the cause of childhood cancer. Through a collaborative event in September we raise awareness, educate and empower the community to get involved, provide support and resources to families impacted by cancer and unite the community in the fight against childhood cancer.
The CHAMP event provides resources in one location, to educate the community to the resources available in the event of a new diagnosis. Also, it provides a smooth transition into the childhood cancer support system which families desperately need.
The CHAMP event is a 5k run/walk and breakfast which draws members of the community who otherwise would not be associated with childhood cancer. Participants include families, supporters and those curious about the cause. The Survivor walk serves as an encouragement to the families fighting, a celebration to those in remission, and a way to honor those kids who fought bravely and are no longer with us. The booth fair offers fun activities and resources to families and the community, and hundreds of opportunities in which to become involved. The event offers the opportunity for students and businesses to volunteer and become involve in “Impacting the Outcome of Childhood Cancer”.
