Welcome to Gavin’s Galaxy!<\/h1>\n

Gavin’s Galaxy was formed after our son, Gavin, was diagnosed with Leukemia in 2015. Getting this news was earth shattering for my wife, my daughter, and me. Unfortunately, our situation is not unique, thousands of families hear the words “Your child has cancer” and those 4 words change life forever. Almost 16,000 children in the US will be diagnosed with cancer this year and 20% of those children (~3,000) will NOT survive. Gavin’s Galaxy is dedicated to improving these statistics by lobbying and educating policy makers, businesses, and the general public.<\/p>\n

Gavin’s Galaxy also is dedicated to giving fighters, warriors, and their families the opportunity to participate in fun events and activities that are designed to minimize the risks that families that are fighting cancer face. No one fights alone, and that is especially true when it comes to our children.<\/p>\n

We ask that you join us in this cause and support the growing number of families in the US that are fighting this battle. Together, we can win this battle against cancer, once and for all!<\/p>\n
