About The St. Baldrick’s Foundation

The St. Baldrick’s Foundation makes grants to research institutions to find new cures for childhood cancer, and to find treatments to ensure a better quality of life for patients and survivors. The foundation funds research projects conducted by established pediatric cancer experts, as well as younger professionals who will be the experts of tomorrow. Funds also enable hundreds of local institutions to participate in national pediatric cancer clinical trials, offering the best available care for every child. Locally, the St. Baldrick’s Foundation is a large source of funding for the fellowship program at the Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta Aflac Cancer Center. Currently, the St. Baldrick’s Foundation funds more in childhood cancer research grants than any organization except the U.S. Government.
