Conquering childhood cancer, together.
About us
In the U.S., more children die from cancer than any other disease. Four Diamonds is on a mission to change this reality. Each year, more than 16,000 families in the United States hear "your child has cancer." Hundreds of those families turn to Penn State Children's Hospital, a nationally recognized leader in pediatric cancer care, to provide world-class treatment for their children. Four Diamonds makes it possible for all of these children to receive the exceptional care they need regardless of the cost. Four Diamonds covers 100% of medical costs for its patients, ensuring families never see a bill. Scientists and researchers at Penn State Children’s Hospital are leading the fight to find better treatments and cures for all childhood cancers. The team at Four Diamonds Pediatric Cancer Research Center works with national consortiums who are working together to identify better, safer treatments to save the lives of children with cancer. The mission of Four Diamonds is to conquer childhood cancer by assisting children treated at Penn State Hershey Children's Hospital and their families through superior care, comprehensive support, and innovative research.
