Tyler Robinson Foundation partners with Cure 4 The Kids Foundation
to support pediatric cancer families in Southern Nevada
LAS VEGAS (March 15, 2022) – Tyler Robinson Foundation (TRF), the nonprofit organization of the GRAMMY® Award-winning band Imagine Dragons dedicated to supporting children battling childhood cancer, is teaming up with Cure 4 The Kids Foundation (C4K), Nevada’s only outpatient children’s cancer clinic, to provide support to pediatric cancer families throughout the Las Vegas community.
As part of their mission to provide high-quality medical care to the pediatric cancer patients of Nevada, Cure 4 The Kids Foundation offers 40+ services to diagnosed children and their families. In 2022, TRF is providing funds to support C4K’s Meal Voucher and Transportation programs to help serve more families in Southern Nevada.
“Children and families battling cancer often times spend an entire day in our clinic when receiving chemotherapy and other life-saving treatments” said Annette Logan-Parker, Founder and CEO of Cure 4 The Kids Foundation. “Through our partnership with TRF, we will alleviate a layer of stress by providing much-needed healthy meals to our families.”
Food disparities are very common in families dealing with a cancer diagnosis. Through C4K’s Patient Meal Vouchers, patients and their caretakers are treated to nutritional lunches at no cost at Roseman University’s Roadrunner Café, located at C4K’s Las Vegas campus. Additionally, C4K’s Transportation program helps provide patients rides to and from appointments to receive treatment.
In the eight years TRF has served the pediatric cancer community, the nonprofit has provided support to more than 2,000 families around the globe and raised more than $12 million. Of every dollar TRF raises, more than 85% goes directly to families in need. TRF continues to grow its efforts for families through a number of awareness and fundraising initiatives.
