Childhood Cancer Society Inc

    • About Us

    About Us

    • At Childhood Cancer Society (CCS), a recognized 501(c)(3) non-profit, we provide essential support to families facing the trials of pediatric cancer. Our origin traces back to a teenager's resolve to amplify family support after his own childhood health challenges. Today, CCS commits to delivering hope, emotional reinforcement, and financial aid to ensure no child endures the journey of cancer treatment alone.
    • Embodying our ethos of perseverance and optimism is Adventure Ted, our superhero mascot and official spokes-bear of the foundation. He embodies the courage found in adventures, guiding children and families to maintain a positive outlook by embracing his motto: "See the adventure in all that you do." CCS not only strives to alleviate the burden of childhood cancer, but also to infuse this challenging journey with a sense of adventure and possibility.
