Purpose

Raise Funding

Raise Awareness

Raise Awareness

The Mary Ruchalski Foundation raises funds for pediatric cancer research and to help support families who have a child undergoing treatment. Through December 31, 2022, we have issued $437,000 in Pediatric Cancer Research Grants and provided families with $110,500 in financial support.

Raise Awareness

Raise Awareness

Raise Awareness

Pediatric cancers are rare. We aim to raise awareness on the facts of pediatric cancer to others. The more awareness we can raise, the more people are informed and can help raise funds for pediatric cancer research.

#BeLikeMary

Raise Awareness

#BeLikeMary

#BeLikeMary was created by Mary's friends after she passed. #BeLikeMary means to live like Mary did by spreading kindness around to others.
