We’re thrilled to announce the launch of the Pediatric Renal Tumor Coalition – a collaborative effort to advance research, advocacy, and awareness for children with kidney cancers. Press release 🔗https://bit.ly/4m5dybl

Together, Joey’s Wings Foundation, Kidney Cancer Association, Elevate Childhood Cancer Research and Advocacy, Wilms Cancer Foundation and childhood rare disease advocate Kelly Trout, BSN, RN, have joined together to bring about better outcomes for children and families facing pediatric kidney cancers.

Pediatric renal tumors include Wilms tumor, pediatric RCC, translocation RCC, rhabdoid tumors (among others), and are underfunded, understudied and cause outsized clinical challenges.

The PRTC is already taking action! Look out for:

• Scientific events to drive improvements in care and discovery

• Investment in basic biology and translational research

• Early-career grants to build future leadership

• Educational materials for families, clinicians, and advocates

• Advocating on key working groups and federal grant review panels

We believe collaboration is necessary to achieve our mission and bring the hope and progress families deserve! Read more about this exciting new PRTC initiative in our press release and follow all the founding members for updates on our activities.
