Band of Parents is a grassroots nonprofit based in New York City that funds research and clinical trials for neuroblastoma, with the aim of improving survival outcomes for this childhood cancer. The organization also serves as a support network for families facing a new diagnosis, helping them navigate treatment as researchers pursue less toxic, targeted therapies. Established in 2007, Band of Parents has directed substantial charitable support toward neuroblastoma research, with two treatments it helped advance now used as standard options at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. The group operates within the nonprofit sector focused on pediatric cancer research and patient support, addressing both the scientific and psychosocial needs of affected families.
