The Ambassadors represent the other cancer patients at Children’s Medical Center and are the heroes behind our campaign to eradicate pediatric cancer. Throughout the year, Wipe Out Kids’ Cancer has activities and events specifically for the courageous Ambassadors and their families.

In 1987, WOKC launched its Ambassador Program.

We serve as a support group for the annually selected Ambassadors – children undergoing cancer treatment at Children’s Medical Center. Wipe Out Kids’ Cancer volunteers spend a great deal of time encouraging the Ambassadors and their families during their cancer treatments and thereafter.

Ambassadors and their families attend functions held in their honor throughout the year. The primary purpose of the program is to allow the children a chance to just be kids and forget about their cancer treatment. Many Ambassador parents have commented that this program has saved their child’s life because it gives the child something for which to look forward.
