  • Mission

    Ava's Army is committed to providing hope and support to children and families affected by pediatric Leukemia. We strive to raise funds to support research and ultimately to find a cure. We believe that every child deserves the opportunity to live a healthy, full life and that together, we can make a difference.

    About Us

    The state of Nebraska is deeply affected by childhood cancer. Nebraska ranks in the top 25% highest pediatric cancer incidence rates in the US, 6th in mortality rates and every 4 days a child living in Nebraska will be diagnosed with cancer. We believe a simple improvement in the treatment provided can drastically improve the statistics above. We created Ava's Army to help fund research to find a better, safer way to save our babies lives. To date, Ava’s Army has donated $169,000 to fund life-saving research.
