Where are the funds for the 2023 nc combine going?

Unmet needs. rapid. local. direct.

Children suffering with cancer face so many challenges and need to overcome so many difficulties. Their families and the medical professionals that treat them see and feel those difficulties as well. There are therapies, supports and services that can help in making a child well or making a child at least feel a bit better. Unfortunately, sometimes the resources needed to access these therapies, supports and services are not available.

Contributions raised from the New Canaan Combine will go to establishing a fund at Yale Children's Hospital, under the supervision of Dr. Stephanie Massaro, that will directly benefit children with cancer. We intend that these funds will be used in a rapid reaction fashion for unmet needs.

These funds will NOT be co-mingled. These funds will NOT incur heavy administration fees or other friction costs. These funds WILL will be used directly for the benefit of children suffering with cancer and for those people and efforts that are saving their lives.

Some of the immediate uses of the money we raise:

- Patient care and quality of life improvements. This will include many types of patient supports and integrative approaches to pediatric medicine

- Research, education & training. This may include various science endeavors such as helping to ensure access to early phase clinical trials for patients
