We’re dedicated to conquering pediatric cancer through research and political action, with an emphasis on responsible spending.

The Kids Shouldn’t Have Cancer Foundation in Memory of Jonny Wade was founded shortly after Jonny’s death. Despite the circumstances, Jonny believed he could – and should – make a difference. We honor his selfless wish that no other kid should have cancer with our mission.
