“The work we do is so critical to our patients and families that we see from all over Alabama and the surrounding states and Racing for Children’s has been an amazing partner in allowing us to really meet that mission head on. It’s through their support that we’re able to do the complex clinical trials, the family supports to really help these patients and their families through the cancer journey and patients who are facing live threatening diseases really need a lot of support,” said Dr. Matthew Kutny, Director of Leukemia, Lymphoma & Histiocytosis programs at Children’s of Alabama.
“We can’t do this alone. It really takes a village,” says Dr. Fred Goldman, Bone Marrow Transplant Director at Children’s of Alabama. “The support thatRacing for Children’s has provided has been incredible. A tremendous amount of research has been done thanks to the support of the organization. We continue to make strides. My goal is to put myself out of business. I don’t want to take care of kids that need a bone marrow transplant. I want us to cure them before they get to that point. The world is looking at us. We are definitely a center of excellence in some of the things that we are doing here, and I think that we are going to be the pace car for the rest of the world.”
