Rally Birthday Club

Join the Rally Birthday Club or Donate in someone’s honor!

What is the Rally Birthday Club?
Nine-year-old Josh has a friend Christine battling childhood cancer in New York.  When Josh was asked what he wanted for his birthday, he replied, “I do not need anything. Instead of gifts I want everyone who comes to my party to donate money to find a cure for Christine.”

Josh’s friends rallied together and instead of giving birthday gifts to Josh, they donated money to the Rally Foundation, and the Rally Birthday Club was born.

We invite you to follow Josh’s lead by supporting childhood cancer research. Ask your friends to contribute to Rally Birthday Club in celebration of your birthday or donate on behalf of a child, and we will send you a Rally Birthday Club certificate!

An easy way to get relatives and friends to donate to your Rally Birthday is to create your own personal fundraising webpage so that they can donate fast and easily online! You will be prompted to create a username & password so that you can begin designing your own webpage!

All you have to do is send out an email to all of your friends, family and co-workers to join or sponsor you in your efforts to help Rally Foundation raise money for childhood cancer research. What better way to do that than by setting up your own personal webpage?

Meet Jacob

Jacob is a happy, funny, little clown. He is always trying to make someone laugh. He loves his family, pirates, Spiderman, and his dog Rosie. He was an unusually healthy child, with no colds, flu, or ear aches. Then he started having strange symptoms and illnesses at two and a half years old. After finally having a bone marrow biopsy done, he was diagnosed with Pre-B Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia on September 11, 2003.

He has been so tough through it all. Jacob has endured numerous spinal taps with injections of drugs into his spinal fluid without having to be put to sleep; he took a handful of pills at one time; he has had many blood transfusions, random viral illnesses with weeks of hospital stays, and daily toxic painful chemotherapy—more than a three year old should ever have to endure. But he keeps in mind the ultimate goal—-growing up and living a long full life. He is doing so well and is in remission. He took his last chemo pill on November 13, 2006 and five years from now Jacob will be considered cured.
