KATE KOMBO's Fundraiser
WE HAVE A DINKING PROBLEM is fundraising for pediatric cancer research!
Please support our team in the fight against childhood cancer.
Help us reach our goal!
Our team, WE HAVE A DINKING PROBLEM, is supporting real change that will make a difference in the lives of children with cancer. Help us support Kate Amato Foundation and their mission to fund research to develop safer and more effective treatments for kids, reduce pain and suffering, and save young lives.
Cancer is the leading cause of death by disease in children. For those who survive, the side effects of treatment can cause severe, long-term health problems including organ damage and secondary cancers. During Kate's illness, her parents learned how severely underfunded research is for pediatric cancers, resulting in outdated, toxic treatments and low survival rates for children. To honor Kate's life and continue the fight for other children, they are determined to educate, advocate, and fundraise for research. To date, Kate Amato Foundation has funded $475,000 in grants to support groundbreaking pediatric cancer research at some of the leading Immunotherapy and Cancer Genomics labs in the country. Thank you for helping us find better treatments for children with cancer!
