Wipe Out Kids' Cancer (WOKC) has been actively working for nearly 30 years
with the vision of a day in which all children are living...cancer free.
Based in Dallas, we are a non-profit organization dedicated to our mission to
invest in the lives of children by funding cancer research, by healing the sould
through fun experiences and by advocating for a cancer-free tomorrow.
We have invested over $3 million dollars to fund research in innovative
treatment options for childhood cancers as well as programs to enrich the lives
of children affected by cancer, and their families.
Our support of these children and their families includes providing fun and
free programs to allow them to forget about their chemo and hospital stays and
just be kids; funding the cost of a full-time Spanish-English translator who
works with families and doctors to assure that key knowledge and information
about their child's cancer and treatment is understood by those for whom English
is a second language; we fund and organize the "Buddy Bags" that contain
necessities for lengthy hospital stays that are distributed to every child
admitted to Children's Medical Center - Dallas for cancer treatment.
We hope you'll be inspired to join our cause. If you would like to find out
