Richie's Rainbow Foundation LTDRegistered

Richie s Rainbow Foundation's mission is to raise awareness of childhood cancer and provide educational resources and support to families and health professionals who are faced with a cancer diagnosis. Around 800 children aged 014 in Australia, are diagnosed with cancer each year. Sadly, approximately 100 of those children will not survive. Those that do survive often face a range of debilitating side effects that may last into adulthood. Richie s Rainbow is committed to raising muchneeded funds for research into childhood sarcomas, predominately rhabdomyosarcoma, which affects approximately 2030 children a year in Australia. Sarcomas remain a challenging diagnosis for many clinicians, and the overall survival rate in this area of childhood cancer has remained relatively unchanged for the past three decades. Richie s Rainbow is dedicated to supporting clinicians associated with the Queensland Children's Hospital Brisbane and the Australian and New Zealand Sarcoma Association (ANZSA) so that they are able to conduct vital research into finding kinder and effective therapies for sarcomas.
