Madelyn James

Pediatric Cancer Foundation

No family should ever have to hear, “your child has cancer.”

If it happens, Madelyn James is here for you.

Home Away from Home

Help families stay together in an oasis near or close by world-class care. Madelyn James pays for you to stay with your family so you can walk home, shower, see your family, breathe for a moment, and work if needed.

Your Child is “N of 1”

When protocol for treatment doesn’t work and your child is not in remission, we are here for you. We will help you navigate second opinions. You know your child best, and you have the right to the world-class care at the best hospital for your child.

Caring community

We know what it’s like to have a baby who has cancer that seems impossible to treat. We will provide you with access to family support groups, activities for families of immunocompromised babies, and advice from parents who have been there.

We’ve been through it

We recognize how hard this journey can be. That’s why we want to honor our Maddy girl with Madelyn James’s commitment to equity and access in cancer care.

Helping families of infants with cancer

We are launching to support families of children with refractory, infant cancer. If you need support, please work with your social worker and you can send a referral to us.

All families belong together
