#MoreThan4

Childhood cancer deserves more than 4%.

Help PCF call for greater federal investment in childhood cancer research—and help fund promising science that children cannot wait for.

Why #MoreThan4 matters

Children’s cancers are biologically different from adult cancers. Each pediatric subtype requires specialized research, yet early discoveries can stall before they generate enough evidence for larger conventional funding.

Federal advocacy and direct philanthropic funding are complementary: one calls for structural change while the other helps promising work move today.

Add your voice

  • Sign and share the #MoreThan4 petition.
  • Tell your community why pediatric research requires dedicated funding.
  • Invite an employer, family foundation or community group to support PCF.
  • Make a direct gift to help move vetted research toward children.

Understand the gap

PCF’s #MoreThan4 campaign describes less than 4% of federal cancer-research funding going to childhood cancer, and calls for greater investment across more than 100 pediatric cancer subtypes.

Take action

Add your voice to the call for greater, sustained federal investment in research designed specifically for children.

Fund progress now

PCF receives no federal funding. Donors help carefully vetted projects advance while the wider funding gap remains.
