"In order to go through this, you need to have hope."

MISSION

The Allyson Whitney Foundation primarily provides young adult cancer patients with ‘Life Interrupted Grants’ to ease their financial burden to concentrate their energy on healing. We want to empower an underserved demographic of Adolescents and Young Adults (our AYA age range 16-36) and shine a spotlight on the term ‘rare’ cancers.  


RECOGNIZING THE GLOBAL IMPACT OF CANCER

Our logo is a sphere, representing that all cancers matter, including rare ones, no matter how small a population it affects. Cancer is a global issue with no outline & no boundaries to seeking hope. Our multi-color bands are symbolic to represent all different variations of cancers. The intertwining colors demonstrate that we are banding together to help patients. Friends of the foundation have shared with us that ‘cancer is a journey and the bands look like paths we may take.’  Our aim is the paths lead to hope.

 “No Life Should be Interrupted by Cancer.”
