St. Baldrick's Launches Giving Tuesday Campaign To Raise $75,000 For Childhood Cancer Research


(MENAFN- Newsfile Corp) Los Angeles, California--(Newsfile Corp. - December 2, 2025) - This Giving Tuesday the St. Baldrick's Foundation, the largest charity funder of childhood cancer research grants in the U.S., invites communities across the country to join the fight against childhood cancer. With a goal of raising $75,000, the campaign will support pioneering research that gives kids battling cancer a chance at a healthy, hopeful life - because behind every cure is a child's future.

Giving Tuesday, observed annually the Tuesday after Thanksgiving, is a Global Day of Generosity that inspires individuals, organizations, and communities to make an impact. For St. Baldrick's, it is a day to rally support for lifesaving childhood cancer research - work that is critical as 1 in 5 kids diagnosed with cancer in the U.S. will not survive. Donations fund research that leads to safer, more effective treatments, higher survival rates, and improved quality of life for these children and their families.

Your gift this Giving Tuesday is more than a donation - it is a step toward breakthroughs that save lives and protect the futures of kids facing cancer. Every child whose life is saved carries dreams, laughter, and joy into the world, and every parent who witnesses their child survive experiences relief, love, and gratitude that can never be measured.

Thanks to the generosity of the Cetina-Chiu Family, every gift will be matched, up to $25,000, doubling the impact and helping fund research that transforms care and moves us closer to cures.

This year, St. Baldrick's is sharing the courageous stories of the following kids affected by cancer:
