15 Years of Hope for Childhood Cancer | Kansas City News

Fifteen years ago, a mother’s love for her son Braden, who battled rare cancer three times, sparked Braden’s Hope — an organization now pouring over $8.5 million into childhood cancer research. Today, Braden survives with lifelong side effects, but his mom’s mission lives on, fueled by the current president’s own daughter’s eye cancer victory thanks to their breakthroughs. Families like the Rinearsons, whose son George fought leukemia, find hope and community through Braden’s Hope — not just funding, but lifelines. To celebrate their milestone, they’ve awarded a major grant to establish a pediatric cancer research chair at Children’s Mercy. This September, join them for a parade on the 4th and a Royals game on the 6th — all part of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. Learn how you can help at their website.
