A diverse student body can help us heal a diverse group of patients.
Students and faculty are critical to Kids Beating Cancer’s efforts. Marrow Donors recruited through educational partnerships are among the most committed donors in the world. The growing diversity of the U.S. student body helps Kids Beating Cancer and the Be The Match national marrow donor registry, operated by the National Marrow Donor Program (NMDP), meet the needs of patients from diverse racial and ethnic communities. These patients are least likely to find a matched donor today.
Partnering with Kids Beating Cancer allows your institution to demonstrate your commitment to diversity and medical access in the global community. Which makes your involvement even more important.

Partnering with Kids Beating Cancer allows your institute to demonstrate to both your students and your faculty, that you do care about diversity and medical access in the global community.

Diversity is the best medicine for those in need of critical care.
A partnership with Kids Beating Cancer provides students and faculty alike with a unique opportunity to engage in a program that Saves Lives. We tailor our program to your needs. There are five ways we can work together:

• Host an employee donor recruitment drive. Join hundreds of Colleges and Universities across America, allowing their students and faculty to engage in an opportunity to make a difference and save a life.
• Sponsor the tissue typing costs to identify donors for patients through a direct donation
• Sponsor one of Kids Beating Cancer’s fundraising events, Hats & Martinis for Hope annual gala or American Girl Fashion Show & Tea Party, benefit from co-branding to our patrons and the community.
• Fund the future. Contribute to the Pediatric Marrow Transplant Program at Disney Pavilion Florida Hospital for Children, naming opportunities available
• Choose Kids Beating Cancer, a member of America’s Charities, as one of your charities and invest in saving lives through Workplace Giving.

Kids Beating Cancer supporting the community. Offering hope.
Kids Beating Cancer is a 501 (3) C non-profit organization committed to all communities. We are dedicated to serving more children of all races and ethnicities. Every day, Kids Beating Cancer and committed partners work tirelessly on behalf of children in need of a life-saving transplant. Through partnerships more volunteers step forward, more funding becomes available for the lab testing to identify donors, a cost not covered by insurance and more children get the medical treatment that can cure their disease, a marrow transplant.

Join us today. Make it your business to save lives.
