Nevada Childhood Cancer Foundation

Established in 1993, The Mission of the Nevada Childhood Cancer Foundation (NVCCF) is to provide social, emotional, educational, financial, and psychological support services and programs to families of ALL children diagnosed with life threatening or critical illnesses such as cancer, HIV/AIDS, sickle cell, hemophilia, renal disorders, and immunologic diseases and provide healing arts and wellness programs to adults diagnosed with cancer.

Annually, NVCCF serves over 450 children and their families as well as over 950 adults touched by cancer living in Southern Nevada. Within 24 hours of receiving a referral, the NVCCF service professionals work in tandem to identify the financial, educational, and psychological needs for critically ill children and their families. These referrals originate from local and out of state hospital personnel, out-patient medical and oncology clinics.
