ABOUT OUR CAUSE

What We Stand For

The purpose of our event is to spread awareness about childhood cancer. Some people may not know, but childhood cancer is one of the least funded for cancer research. Children that are diagnosed are still using some medications that are over 30 years old. (Have not been improved/ updated). We deeply care about educating people and spreading more awareness because it is very important to us, and others. Elli Velissarakos and Gabriella Iannarelli deeply care about childhood cancer, and we want everyone to be apart of the impact of spreading awareness about the cause. Childhood cancer is truly no different than other cancers, and deserves more attention.
