The Boiling Crab® Champions Childhood Cancer Awareness Month

The Boiling Crab® Champions Childhood Cancer Awareness Month

As September unfolds, The Boiling Crab® is thrilled to join forces with the National Pediatric Cancer Foundation (NPCF) and RIF Los Angeles, marking Childhood Cancer Awareness Month with a strong commitment to raising awareness and supporting pediatric cancer research.

Partnership for a Purpose

This initiative represents more than just a charitable contribution; it symbolizes a community rallying to improve the lives of young patients battling cancer. From September 16 to October 13, The Boiling Crab will generously donate a portion of proceeds from its boisterous shrimp and crawfish sales. These proceeds will either be from in-store patrons or delivery orders placed via Postmates. This collaborative effort aims to significantly bolster NPCF's mission to eradicate childhood cancer.

Good People Helping Good Kids

In addition to their monetary contributions, The Boiling Crab is excited to leverage RIF Los Angeles's theme of "Good People Helping Good People" by adapting it to "Good People Helping Good Kids" for this unique campaign. Families dining at The Boiling Crab can look forward to two exclusive t-shirt designs available from RIF LA, alongside a delightful set of three custom stickers which will be sold in-store. To make dining even more enjoyable, children will receive complimentary coloring placemats and crayons during their visit.

Community Impact and Awareness

The generosity of The Boiling Crab extends beyond food sales. Direct donations are welcomed through their designated TBC Donation Page, supporting NPCF's tireless work towards discovering less toxic and more effective treatments for childhood cancers. David Frazer, CEO of the National Pediatric Cancer Foundation, shares, "We are thankful and proud to partner with The Boiling Crab to raise awareness and funds to support pediatric cancer research." Such collaborations foster a brighter future for kids diagnosed with cancer.

Voices from the Heart

Dada Ngo, Co-founder of The Boiling Crab, emphasizes the initiative's significance: "At The Boiling Crab, we believe in the power of community and the importance of giving back. It is more important now than ever to bring light to pediatric cancer, as the number of children diagnosed continues to rise and the need for effective treatments grows. Partnering with the National Pediatric Cancer Foundation is a meaningful way for us to contribute to a cause that is close to our hearts."

Understanding the Facts

It's essential to raise awareness surrounding childhood cancer. Here are some key facts: Cancer remains the leading cause of death by disease for children. Every day, 43 kids in the U.S. are expected to be diagnosed with cancer, with about 1 in 285 children receiving a diagnosis before the age of 20. Furthermore, childhood cancer survivors often experience significant health-related issues by the age of 45 due to current treatment options. Alarmingly, only 4% of the funds allocated for cancer research are specifically designated toward childhood cancers.

NPCF's Mission

When you consider the impact of NPCF, it's clear they are making strides in pediatric oncology. Over 89 cents of every dollar donated directly funds clinical trials for less toxic and more effective treatments. Over the last 12 years, NPCF has allocated $39 million toward research, leading to exciting breakthroughs in treatment options to improve survival rates and quality of life for children with cancer.

The Importance of Community Involvement

Enhancing awareness and support for childhood cancer is crucial. It plays a pivotal role in progressing research and ultimately bettering outcomes for affected children. To support this cause, The Boiling Crab invites you to enjoy their delicious Cajun seafood while contributing to this critical initiative.
