The National Pediatric Cancer Foundation (NPCF) formed the Sunshine Project™, an innovative collaboration with one goal: to bring together the nation’s top doctors and researchers to find a faster cure for pediatric cancer. Through the establishment of the Sunshine Project, the NPCF has developed a business model that capitalizes on the strengths of researchers from all different fields of science and streamlines the process to accelerate the development of new treatments.

Best of all, the NPCF has proven that this collaborative model works. Since 2005, the NPCF has funded multiple clinical trials and translational studies valued at $50 million. New compounds have been, and continue to be, tested and hold great promise for children who have not experienced positive results under the standard treatment protocol.
