ABOUT
359 lights for 359 kids
We're on a mission to light up 359 buildings and homes in gold during September's Childhood Cancer Awareness Month to represent and bring attention to the 359 children across Virginia who are diagnosed with cancer each year - but we need your help!
Childhood cancer isn't that uncommon in Virginia, and kids need our help. Here's why:
359
children, on average, are diagnosed with cancer each year in Virginia.

2/3
of all childhood cancer survivors develop late effects from treatment that make it harder to learn and thrive.
46%
of children who survive cancer will experience educational or other problems in school.
