More than $800,000 to trials across leading institutions
To live up to our mission of eradicating cancer through funding research, Pierce Phillips Charity focuses a great deal of attention and resources on funding clinical trials that have a significant potential impact on children fighting cancer today. Since its inception, Pierce Phillips Charity has funded clinical trial grants for 6 trials across the leading research institutions in North America. Since 2012, PPC has granted more than $800,000 to trials across leading institutions, including the first use of CAR-T cells for solid tumors at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia and High Intensity Focused Ultrasound at the hospital for sick kids in Toronto.
We have partnered with researchers at top institutions such as Cincinnati Children’s Hospital, Texas Children’s Hospital, Penn State Hershey Children’s Hospital, Dana Farber Boston Children’s Hospital, Kosair Children’s Hospital Louisville, Nationwide Children’s Hospital, University of Vermont, Riley’s Children’s Hospital in San Diego, and St. Justine in Montreal.
