FACTS-  PEDIATRIC CANCER RESEARCH IS SEVERELY UNDER-FUNDED
-  The American Cancer Society dedicates less than 1% of its $1 Billion in annual public revenues to pediatric cancer research
-  The National Cancer Institute allocates less than 4% of its annual $5.1 Billion budget to pediatric cancer research
-  There has only been 1 drug approved by the FDA in the past 20 years for any pediatric cancer
-  Pharmaceutical companies do NOT invest in pediatric oncology treatments.  They are not motivated financially to do so.

CHILDREN'S NATIONAL MEDICAL CENTER
-  The #1 childhood Cancer Center in the region
-  CNMC treats patients from all over the world
-  Over 250 new patients are diagnosed with pediatric cancer at Children's National each year (roughly 5 new patients per week)
-  CNMC diagnoses and treats more kids with cancer than Johns Hopkins, Georgetown Lombardi and Inova Fairfax combined
-  Children's National has over 12,000 visits annually from children with cancer who are currently being treated
