Ways to Support and Donate to Conquer Childhood Cancer

Four Diamonds helps hundreds of families annually thanks to our generous donors. To ensure donor funds make the most significant impact, we utilize three funding priorities:

1. Financial assistance: At Four Diamonds, we ensure every child receives the highest quality care without seeing a bill. Our compassionate care program relieves the financial pressures of care for parents and the task of completing and submitting billing paperwork.
2. Care support: Our team ensures that every Four Diamonds child has access to specialists and support services to meet their mental, physical, emotional and spiritual needs.
3. Research: Through your donations, we can make grants to various innovative research projects that aim to learn more about childhood cancer and develop effective treatments. We also invest funds in endowments and use the interest to create secondary, permanent funding streams for ongoing research in search of curing childhood cancer.

At Four Diamonds, we prioritize patient care and support, which is why we split the majority of our funds between patient care and family support and research. By designating a large percentage of funds to families and research, we can ensure all children are well cared for and that research operations do not experience any funding delays. 

We also use a smaller percentage of funds for research endowments and administrative tasks such as fundraising and marketing to raise awareness about Four Diamonds and encourage more donations.
