About Our Team

Our work is more than just a job, it’s a commitment to creating a brighter and healthier tomorrow for adolescent and young adults (AYAs) with cancer. 

From our board members, member advisory board, staff members and volunteers, we’re all focused on one mission: to ease the impact of cancer on the lives of AYAs, raise survival rates and find a cure for sarcomas and other solid tumor cancers.
