It is simple.  We are an organized group of families with children, grandchildren, friends, and relatives afflicted by cancer.  Our only goal is to erradicate this disease.  Our children may or may not benefit from this research.  A cure may not come in time for many of our little warriors.  But we can keep other families from walking in our shoes and we can keep other children from entering into the world of neuroblastoma.  It is for these reasons that we are committed to finding the cure.  We have no desire to fund expensive marketing campaigns.  We are committed to finding a cure.  It is about the children.

 

Our goal to hasten the search for a cure does not only include fundraising but it is also about speeding the process of getting research dollars into the hands of those that need it the most.  For this reason, the CNCF developed a grant review process in order to direct the funds into the most promising areas of research.  As parents we do not always know what is in the best interest of neuroblastoma research.  To correct this problem we created a medical board of the top researchers in the country to help us make better decisions regarding funding.  The medical board operates under the following directive: 

 

Make funding decisions that are most likely to hasten research into the cure for neuroblastoma. 

 

It is this design that guarantees your lunch money will be put to its best use.
