Support organization

Nevada Childhood Cancer Foundation

Project A.R.K. provides free financial, educational, psychological, and emotional support to Southern Nevada families whose child has cancer or another life-threatening illness. A child with B-ALL can qualify from infancy through age 18 under the program's childhood critical-illness scope. Families or healthcare professionals contact the program for caseworker screening, because the public page does not publish a universal grant amount or complete financial test.
