This goal reflects the urgent need to accelerate pediatric cancer research—especially when 41 children in the U.S. are diagnosed with cancer every single day.

Lacrosse players and teams nationwide are joining forces with the Pediatric Cancer Research Foundation to raise critically needed funding for pediatric cancer research. Forty-one (41)* children are diagnosed each day with cancer in the US, and more children under 20 are lost to cancer than any other disease. Research takes a lot of funding and progress is limited by a lack of resources. The largest single funder of research, the federal government, directs just 4% of its cancer research budget to advancing lifesaving treatments for kids. Caring communities like ours can help fill the gap.
*The NIH’s 2024 estimates show 41 children per day will be diagnosed with cancer in the U.S.—a step in the right direction from the previously reported 47.
