Welcome to NCCS!

The Neuroblastoma Children's Cancer Society is a group made up of volunteers, many of whom have children or relatives who are victims or survivors of this disease. Our organization is an advocate for the children who suffer from neuroblastoma and is dedicated to serving as a support center for their families. The primary focus of the organization is to raise money to assist local research in neuroblastoma cancer, and to raise national awareness to focus additional research and funding until a cure can be found.

Michael James Sexton's courageous effort in his fight against neuroblastoma cancer ended in September 1993 at the age of three. During his nine months of intense treatment, he faced each day with determination, purpose and his smile! "We were shocked by the inability of the medical profession to combat the disease and that no major organization was funding significant research to promote a front line treatment or cure for neuroblastoma cancer."

"Our family and friends decided to do something meaningful in Michael's memory and in memory of those children who lost their battle with neuroblastoma." Founded in 1994, the Neuroblastoma Children's Cancer Society is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting research and providing support to the children (and their families) diagnosed with neuroblastoma.

"Our organization is dedicated to raising funds for Neuroblastoma research, to change the outcome for all children diagnosed with this disease."

Our Goals

Through our organization, we want to raise funds for research of this disease, to change outcomes, and to stop this disease from taking our children!
