Join Us. Give Hope. Save Kids. Beat Childhood Cancer.
The MACC Fund was created and remains a non-profit, in December 1976. Determined to make an immediate difference by Giving Hope through Research. With advances in medical research, cure rates began to rise and community involvement began to spread.
Event-related fundraising and cause-related marketing comprise about 75% of the MACC Fund's annual income. The other 25% of annual income comes from donations, corporate and workplace giving, planned giving, stock gifts, matching gifts, and through membership in the Hope Team.

Celebrating 45 Years
45 years ago to the day, on Jon McGlocklin's jersey retirement night on the Milwaukee Bucks Inc. floor, the MACC Fund was founded. Our co-founders, Jon McGlocklin and Eddie Doucette, set out to help children like Eddie's son Brett who was diagnosed with ALL at age 2. They wanted to ensure that no child would ever have to deal with the harmful side effects of cancer treatment.
Since that day, we have given over $76 million to childhood cancer and related blood disorders research which funds new clinical trials, experimental treatment options, and ongoing support programs for survivors. The MACC Fund was based on a community, and that's how we continue today with a community of strong suppor...

Poor little darling 😢😢😢❤️🙏
Every 48 hours… holy shit that’s devastating. I’m so glad he’s ok!! ♥️
My little cousin Eddie, who was like a brother to me, died of this on Oct. 19, 1964. He was 11 & had been suffering horribly for 1-1/2 yrs. Our whole family was devastated. May God bless u & keep u safe. My thoughts & prayers are with u all.
Hi, I was diagnosed colon cancer some months ago when a lump grew in my neck. I am 57. So Getting ready, for the next journey.
I’m so happy for your family. I had ovarian cancer. I was lucky. It was as big as a football, but did not spread. They did a debulking, no cancer anywhere else. I had no chemo or radiation. That was back in June 2011.
god bless him my great aunt died from cancer she hadn't been to a doctor in a while until she found out she had cancer she had 2 to 3 weeks left to live she didn't make it though one week and she passed away 😭💔
😔
No more chemo or radiation. C D. S. Of Andreas kalker is the solution.
Hope you are doing well, Ian.
Does anyone know how this boy is doing? Please let us know.
Hey ian i love your smile. So heart-warming!
Look into Protocel remedy or Budwig protocol. They are both very potent cancer antidotes with amazingly high recovery rate. One or the other, they should not be mixed.
He died last summer
what stage of cancer was Dylan diagnosed with?
stage 4 since he got six round of chemotherapy and It could be group C if he had CNS positive, the prognosis is about 95% with the new protocol chemotherapy + RITUXIMAB, However It is very tough
R-DA-EPOCH Im doing this treatment right now Im in second session and Im feeling great already
My Daughter Michelle died from it 30 years ago in 1990 . She was 15. She died October the 5th and would have been 16 on October the 20th.
