This is from MSKCC's own website. For information on HAMA, scroll down to the "What is HAMA?" question. - Alex's Lemonade Stands
Alex Scott died in the summer of 2004 of neuroblastoma, which she had been fighting since she was a baby. Her motto was "When life hands you lemons, make lemonade", and in that spirit, she started running lemonade stands to raise money for pediatric cancer research. Though she is gone, the lemonade stands continue, held across the country. - Children's Neuroblastoma Cancer Foundation
They sponsor the conference in Chicago. A wonderful organization - Lunch for Life - Saving children one lunch at a time
This is a fundraising effort for the Children's Neuroblastoma Cancer Foundation - Pediatric Cancer Foundation
I rode in a Bikeathon to raise money for these guys. Among many worthy projects, they have given money for Dr. Cheung's antibody research at Sloan-Kettering. Elias is directly benefiting from this research now.

Raceday for Malachi, Elias (and Tom)
Tom ran a half marathon today, as warmup for the NYC Marathon in a few weeks. There was a kids fun run after the half marathon. Malachi had been planning to do it for a while and was preregistered. When we got there, we discovered there was a 4 year old category, so we signed Elias up to. He liked the idea, at least until it was time to line up. Then he suddenly got cold feet. Tom had to run along with him, and he ran the whole (short) distance clinging to Tom's leg.
When it was Malachi's turn, he went out with all the other 6 year olds. But partway through, his hat blew off, and he stopped to grab it. That cost him enough time that he ended up finishing in the last clump of kids. But he had fun, and was smiling through the whole thing.
Tom ran a good half marathon and thinks he is pretty ready now for the big race.
