who we are

Putting the Fun Back into Fundraising

Rocks the Cure is a non-profit organization dedicated to raising money for pediatric cancer research and family support. But we take a different approach than most fundraising organizations, using music and entertainment to spread the message about this very important cause.

We believe that music has amazing powers to heal. We also believe that fundraising can – and should be – fun! So you won’t find us at any stuffy black-tie fundraising dinners. Instead we’ll be staging exciting musical events with nationally known artists, where everyone in attendance has a great time while making a big impact on pediatric cancer research.

With these core beliefs laying the foundation for all we do, Rocks the Cure’s mission is to use the healing power of music to:

Raise awareness of pediatric cancer

Raise funds to support pediatric cancer research and ensure pediatric patients and their families get the support they need

Provide much-needed moments of relief and happiness to pediatric cancer patients and their families

Help our donors connect with their communities in a very real and meaningful way

why pediatric cancer?

Pediatric cancer is the one area of cancer research that needs the most help. The Federal Drug Administration requires much stricter standards for pediatric cancer drugs, making it very hard for them to get approved for clinical use. As a result, many of the cures available for adult patients are not available for children.

At the same time, the families of children with pediatric cancer are affected in so many ways. As parents get absorbed in the treatment process, they lose time at work, creating financial difficulties. And the physical and emotional stress of caring for a sick child can take a significant toll on their health as well.

Our goal with Rocks the Cure is to support the research side of pediatric cancer while also providing financial support so the families can obtain housing, special clothing, or any other needs they may have.
