About Making Headway Foundation

When a child is diagnosed with a brain or spinal cord tumor, the whole family needs a special kind of care and support. Making Headway Foundation was created in response to this compelling need. Our humanistic programs support children and their families from diagnosis through treatment and beyond. Children, siblings, parents and doctors rely on Making Headway to counter fear and discomfort with laughter and love; to replace confusion and bewilderment with understanding; and to make headway through each impasse to a place where the joy of being a child and the joy of being a parent are nurtured and shared. Patient support during the time of treatment and following: art therapy, yoga, massage, educational counseling, picnics, outings and, in come cases, we have to assist the family with their bereavement. We also fund scientific research in pediatric oncology of the Central Nervous System. (CNS)
