The Children’s of Mississippi Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders, part of Children’s of Mississippi, provides treatment for children with cancer, sickle cell and blood-related diseases. Patients are treated regardless of their ability to pay and are not required to participate in a clinical trial to receive care.
The center’s caregivers and staff join families in their journey, bringing together a team of pediatric cancer experts with the training and advanced treatments to give Mississippi’s children the best possible outcomes.
Currently, a $2.5 million renovation project is underway that will upgrade and expand the Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders by adding additional exam rooms, private infusion rooms, and updating the center’s pharmacy. Proceeds from Cycle Out Kids Cancer will support the renovations as well as support these families in their time of need.
