Treating Children. Curing Cancer.

About Hope & Heroes

 

Hope & Heroes exclusively supports the patients, programs and research at the Division of Pediatric Hematology, Oncology & Stem Cell Transplantation at Columbia University Medical Center. 

The Division, located at NewYork-Presbyterian Morgan Stanley Children's Hospital in upper Manhattan, is one of the largest and most distinguished programs for children with cancer and blood disorders in the United States. 

Philanthropy allows us to provide exemplary patient care and specialized programs to assist our patients and their families through the cancer journey.

Our Hematology program is renowned for providing stem cell transplantation for children with sickle cell disease. More information is here.

Our young patients have free access to complementary and alternative medicine, counseling and emotional support, novel drugs through clinical trials for hard to treat pediatric cancers and survivorship wellness initiatives. 

In addition, at the Irving Cancer Research Center, our physician scientists and clinical investigators perform research to ensure that our patients have access to the latest, most innovative therapies. Existing and future projects are designed to lead to new treatments, new diagnostic methods, and strategies to prevent childhood cancer. 

All of our programs and innovative research are only possible through public and private support.
