Volunteers are the heart of Rally's mission!
Our Story
In 2005, a 17-year-old boy named William was fighting a brain tumor for the second time in two years. Rally Founder and CEO, Dean Crowe, asked a simple question, “What can I do to help? And I will not make you dinner. This situation is so past dinner.”
William’s mother replied, “Raise money for childhood cancer research and
fund the best research wherever it may be.” The mission of Rally was born that day.
Our Mission
Rally Foundation for Childhood Cancer Research, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, empowers volunteers across the country to raise awareness and funds for childhood cancer research to find better treatments with fewer long-term side effects and, ultimately, cures.
