Melissa Joan Hart Instagram – September is pediatric cancer awareness month, a cause that is close to my heart.
Cancer is the leading cause of death by disease after infancy. Around 400,000 children and adolescents are diagnosed with cancer each year, but the actual number may be higher since an estimated 44% of global cases go undiagnosed.
Please support pediatric-specific cancer research (only seven drugs have been approved by the FDA to treat childhood cancer in the past 30 years. In this time, over 200 drugs have been approved for adults) through trusted organizations such as @talanstrust & Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation (@pbtf_events) & @stjude
A link is also in my bio to support a current fundraiser for the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation, in honor of our friend Noah.
