Washington,
DC
Last
May, ICIC founders Beth and
Brad Besner, visited friend
and Congresswoman, Debbie
Wasserman Schultz and Congresswoman
Deborah Pryce in Washington,
DC. Deborah Pryce's daughter
Caroline died of childhood
cancer about 7 years ago.
Congresswoman Pryce has championed
legislation to fund pediatric
cancer research. Her work
culminated in the 2008 passage
of the Caroline Pryce Walker
Conquer Childhood Cancer Act
- the first legislation EVER
exclusively funding pediatric
cancer research.
I
Care I Cure Collaborating
with Pediatric Cancer Foundations
Congresswoman
Pryce established Hope Street
Kids in honor of Caroline.
I Care I Cure worked with
HSK to award the first two
I Care I Cure Research Grants
to fund groundbreaking research
that will lead to targeted
treatment for childhood cancer.
I Care I Cure will be teaming
with other pediatric cancer
foundations to make the search
for better and gentler cures
more efficient and, thus,
more effective. This is a
very exciting development
which will make our donor's
gifts have great impact much
sooner. (
