To grant more children with cancer access to clinical trials, the St. Baldrick’s Foundation has awarded 29 infrastructure grants totaling $1.7 million to institutions across the country. This series of grants brings the St. Baldrick’s Foundation’s funding total to more than $26 million awarded in 2018.
Infrastructure grants are awarded based on the need of the institution and its patients, the anticipated results of the grant, and local participation in St. Baldrick’s Foundation’s fundraising events and activities. These grants give institutions the resources they require to conduct more research.
