About The
Foundation

The HayesTough Foundation is dedicated to providing financial support and hope to families affected by childhood cancer. Every year nearly 100,000 kids die from Childhood Cancer, which is almost 300 kids per day. Despite these numbers, childhood cancer research is vastly underfunded.
