GO FORWARD. The Valerie Fund supporters are turning red lights green. Be a part of The Valerie Fund’s historic $5,000,000 effort, The Green Light Initiative, to extend next generation care to thousands of children fighting cancer.
The Old Reality | Cancer in children had always signaled a hard stop - a red light to young lives in motion. For parents, the diagnosis meant learning a new vocabulary, adopting a radical schedule, and shaking up nearly every minute of ordinary family life. As cancer threatened futures, it was a journey with few detours.
The Road Ahead | A diagnosis of cancer or a blood disorder will always be devastating, but today, there is greater hope. With new treatment options, children spend more time receiving more care that will move them toward a cure. These treatment options also mean children will need more Valerie Fund in-clinic support and survivorship programs. This is why we have created the Green Light Initiative.
