Placing your donation dollars directly with vetted cancer researchers and the institutions that support families battling childhood cancer.

Your Support Helped Make This Emerging Treatment Possible

Our supporters helped make Dr. Singh and Dr. Williams breakthrough work possible (see below). Together we can and do make a big difference in the fight against childhood cancer.

 

Dr. Sheila Singh and Dr. William Gwynne (above) are part of a McMaster University-led study that says, a specific enzyme they have identified and the ability to block this enzyme may hold the key to offering a non-toxic treatment to an often lethal form of childhood brain cancer.

Our Cause

The last few decades have seen huge progress in treating and curing childhood cancers.  But there is still a long way to go, to save lives and to help the young ones live normal lives well into adulthood

Our Mission

At BoxRun we aim to fund research that focuses on less toxic alternatives to cancer treatment. Treatments that allow children who are fighting cancer to live as normal a life as possible, just like their classmates

Support

Treatment for childhood cancers can often last years, which takes a toll on the lives and finances of families.  That's why BoxRun also raises money for Ronald McDonald House Hamilton.

Where do your donations go?

Dr. Singh and her team at McMaster Stem Cell & Research Institute are highly dedicated to childhood cancer treatment, primarily in the area of brain tumours. 

 

Ronald McDonald House Hamilton provides vital support services to families at the most difficult times in their lives. Their support goes above and beyond basic needs and provides a home away from home for families who need to be close to the hospital for short to long term treatment.
