The need: our youngest patients

Proceeds from the 2024 Pulse of the City Soiree will advance patient care, research, and talent within Banner Children’s pediatric oncology program:

	CARE: Proceeds will provide vital operating support for the Children’s Blood & Cancer Centers at all three Banner Children’s medical centers in Arizona, which provide family-centered cancer care including chemotherapy, surgery, and bone marrow transplant to more than 4,000 children annually. Diamond Children’s Medical Center in Tucson is the only Children’s Blood & Cancer Center in Southern Arizona and the only pediatric cancer center outside the Phoenix metro area.
	RESEARCH: Proceeds will also support Banner Children’s medical centers’ full participation in the national Children’s Oncology Group, giving Arizona kids access to the latest and most promising investigational treatments right here at home, without the financial burdens of traveling out of state. Through collaborative research, the Children’s Oncology Group has improved rates for children’s cancer at a pace much faster than any one individual or single institution could accomplish alone.
	TALENT: Proceeds will also support recruitment of expert pediatric subspecialists including interventional radiologists, geneticists, and palliative care specialists to offer kids and families world-class care and the most advanced and specialized treatment and support.
