Country Kids with Cancer
Description
Country Kids With Cancer is a 501(c)3 organization that provides financial assistance to kids in rural areas fighting cancer.
This organization, based in Durango, Colorado, was founded by cancer survivor Sarah Shank. Sarah was diagnosed with Ewing's Sarcoma in 2000 and had to travel over 800 miles every three weeks for her treatment at Children's Hospital in Denver. It was during one of these trips that Sarah came up with the idea of Country Kids With Cancer.
Her organization has been instrumental in helping many families that live in rural areas with their travel expenses. 98% of funds received go directly to the families in need. The other 2% is used for mailing and office supply expenses.
