MC Cancer Foundation was founded on the principle that children of parents battling cancer deserve the opportunity to pursue their educational dreams. Our organization understands the unique challenges these families face, often juggling medical expenses, emotional strain, and the desire to provide a sense of normalcy for their children.

Inspired by the personal experiences of our founder, Tiffany C. Martin-Carrasco, a two-time cancer survivor and widow, MC Cancer Foundation was born from a recognized gap in existing support systems. While many organizations focus on the needs of cancer patients, few specifically address the financial burdens faced by their children striving for higher education. Our founder witnessed firsthand the struggle to support a child's college aspirations while navigating the complexities of cancer treatment and single parenthood.

MC Cancer Foundation aims to bridge this gap by providing financial assistance to students whose parent or guardian is currently undergoing cancer treatment. We believe that these children, who represent our future, should have every chance to reach their full potential, regardless of their family's current circumstances. We are committed to empowering these students to pursue their college dreams and build a brighter future. We strive to offer hope and support during a challenging time, ensuring that the dreams of these deserving students are not deferred due to the impact of a parent's cancer diagnosis.

Your generous donations to this campaign directly fund the crucial college application process and provide invaluable college tour experiences for children whose parents are battling cancer. These tours offer a vital glimpse into college life, helping these resilient students refocus on their higher education journey. By providing these opportunities, the MC Cancer Foundation aims to bring a sense of normalcy to their lives during an incredibly challenging time.
