Friends of the Jimmy Everest Center is a fundraising campaign of Children's Health Foundation that supports children battling cancer and their families through innovative programs, care, and research, with an ultimate goal of ending childhood cancer.

​

Through the efforts of Friends of the Jimmy Everest Center and its fundraising activities, children with cancer and their families have been welcomed to a variety of engaging events aimed at providing respite from the rigors of cancer treatment and boosting awareness of childhood cancer.  Our hope is that through our fundraising efforts Oklahoma children diagnosed with cancer can receive the advanced care they need close to home and that researchers will make new discoveries that improve treatment and survival.
