OUR MISSION
Rutledge Cancer Foundation works to ease the impact of cancer on the lives of teens and young adults, raise survival rates and find a cure for sarcomas and other solid tumor cancers.
RAISE SURVIVAL RATES
We work as a catalyst to increase awareness and early detection.
FIND A CURE
We support research for less toxic, personalized cancer therapies.
OUR STORY
Rutledge Cancer Foundation was founded in 2011, after 15 year old Carley Rutledge was diagnosed with stage IV Ewing sarcoma, an aggressive bone cancer. When friends and family learned that patient care and survival rates of adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with cancer lagged far behind other age groups, they decided to take action.
