Halloween is one of the best times of year for many children. It is a time when they get to dress in costume and go out with family and friends to collect all the goodies…

Thanks to the generous support of companies, teams, and individuals each year, Paige’s Childhood Cancer Fund is able to raise critical funds to benefit the children of Central New York.

Public support and donations are the lifeblood of an organization such as ours. We gratefully accept donations all year ’round and are faithful with your gifts. Learn more about the many ways you can make a meaningful contribution to our mission.

Jack was a healthy, happy, chubby baby until we noticed that he had what looked like bruises around his eyes and his appetite was off in August of 2014 –3 trips to the pediatrician finally brought us to Upstate’s…

As we head into our 30th Run this weekend, we cannot help

Today you would be turning 40.
You were an artist, a dancer, a singer and wise far beyond your years. Most of all, you were a beautiful light in this world, such a kind, compassionate, deeply loving child.
Your legacy lives on in every child, family and community that is helped, in your loving memory.
Happy Birthday, sweet Paige. Your light continues to shine. 💛🦋

Halloween is one of the best times of year for many children. It is a time when they get to dress in costume and go out with family and friends to collect all the goodies their bucket will hold.
For young David Ingram Jr., this past Halloween hit much differently. On this day he heard the words that no child should have to hear: “You have cancer.”
Like many children do, especially those who are school-age, young David had appeared to be struggling with a persistent stomach bug. He was able to attend school, participate in Halloween festivities and even playing in his first hockey game! All the while being plagued with bouts of nausea and pain. Then the day came that it became so unbearable he was not even interested in eating. A trip to urgent care uncovered a mass which led him to Upstate Golisano Children`s Hospital where he received a diagnosis of Stage 3 Burkitts Lymphoma.
David spent the next serval months enduring aggressive treatment to treat the disease, much of which kept him inpatient at the hospital. This meant he was away from things he loved, such as his younger brother, friends, beloved golden retriever and hockey community. That very community however, along with local fire, EMT and police forces rallied with him and his family in addition to local businesses and nonprofit organizations such as ours.
On January 19 of this year, David rang the bell!
Today, David and his family are giving back to the organizations that helped carry them through one of life`s hardest journeys. Their gratitude is inspiring and we are truly honored to have been a small part of their story. To read more: paigesccf.org/stories/david

Some donations we receive hit a little different🎗️
What an honor it was for us to be among the fine list of local organizations to receive the proceeds of young David`s lemonade stand.
David rang the bell in January this year after a hard fought battle and is now finding joy in giving back to organizations that were there for he and his family.
We are incredibly grateful for this budding philanthropist and his family for joining us in our mission.

Be sure to watch until the end… 🥹🙏
What began as a small community event in memory of Paige Yeomans Arnold has grown into a powerful movement of hope, driving support for local children and families facing childhood cancer and blood disorders.

Navigating life after a childhood cancer diagnosis can be scary. Thankfully, because of the amazing Survivor Wellness Team at the Cancer Center at Upstate Golisano Children’s Hospital and our generous community, local children and families don’t have to face it alone.
At today’s Survivor Picnic it was smiles all around as families enjoyed a magic show, making crafts, taking silly photos, an ice cream truck, yard games, amazing food, spending time with others who “get it” and more.
On beautiful days like today, when we see our mission helping bring so much joy, we are reminded of how fortunate we are to have so many amazing supporters making this all happen. We are truly grateful for you all! 💛🎗️
