Our Why:
Each year, approximately 552 children are diagnosed with cancer in Ohio.
Our Journey:
In 2018, our founder launched Non-Profits United—a network of central Ohio childhood cancer organizations working together through roundtables and direct communication to better serve families.
By 2020, the pandemic dramatically increased the need for emotional and financial support. Local nonprofits joined forces, sharing resources to meet urgent family needs.
In 2024, inspired by statewide efforts and the work of Ohio’s six children’s hospitals, the group expanded its mission: to not only support families directly but also drive advocacy and research. A dedicated team of nonprofit leaders stepped up to lead this effort.
With renewed purpose, Non-Profits United became the Ohio Fights Childhood Cancer Collaborative (OFC³)—a name that reflects our mission and our mindset. We’re ready. Childhood cancer, we’re coming for you.
