I am a nurse with greater than 25 years experience caring for children with cancer in some capacity. I have been involved over the course of these years as a volunteer for PCRF since its inception. PCRF is a grassroots organization that has kept the spirit of “it’s for the kids” forefront in their fundraising efforts. They strive to raise awareness of the need to find a cure for all types of childhood cancer through research. Enormous strides have been made in survival rates for these children through the efforts of PCRF to turn research dollars into bedside treatments. My entire family has had the opportunity to volunteer at their fundraising events such as the golf tournament, auction, roundup, and run/walk. PCRF is made up of a wonderful group of staff and volunteers with big hearts that motivate their efforts to raise funds to cure this special group of wonderful children.

The Pediatric Cancer Research Foundation is the most respected foundation that supports research into the causes and treatment of pediatric cancer today. Because of the Pediatric Cancer Research Foundation we are that much closer to finding a cure for pediatric malignant diseases. I have had the honor to work with the leaders of the foundation on many worthwhile projects to benefit our pediatric cancer program here at Mattel Children's Hospital UCLA. Their leadership, dedication, organization, compassion, and determination is truly admired and appreciated by all. I strongly recommend the Pediatric Cancer Research Foundation for this award.
