Supporting pediatric cancer organizations like ACCO makes a significant difference in the lives of children and families affected by cancer. How would YOU like to get involved?
Donate
Donations like yours keep ACCO’s mission afloat. Donations like yours are how we bring free resources to thousands of families every year and secure research funding for better treatments. Donations like yours bridge the gap between what has been achieved and what still needs to be done. Our goal is to secure state-based childhood cancer research funding in 25 states by 2030, and every single donation brings us closer.

If you’ve never run a fundraiser before, don’t worry. ACCO is happy to provide guidance, print materials, and swag like stickers and bracelets. Plus, we’ll take care of all the administrative paperwork.
Taking action changes lives. Events make a tangible impact. In 2023, events hosted with ACCO raised more than $180,000 to supply free resources for families and promote childhood cancer research.
