A brave journey
On February 16, 2016, our world changed forever. Our daughter Penelope was diagnosed with Stage 4 High-Risk Neuroblastoma just one month shy of her second birthday. Despite the odds, Penelope fought courageously for nearly three years before losing her battle. Her story is the heart of our foundation and drives our relentless pursuit to find a cure.
What is neuroblastoma?
Neuroblastoma is the most common and deadly solid tumor cancer in children outside of the brain, primarily affecting children under five. With only a 50% survival rate post-diagnosis, the need for research and innovation is critical. Our foundation is committed to changing these statistics.
Making a difference in
the lives of children
The Penelope Neuroblastoma Foundation is dedicated to funding life-saving research, advancing new treatment options, and supporting the families who face the overwhelming challenges of a neuroblastoma diagnosis. We envision a world where every child has a fighting chance to survive and thrive.
