About the Connor Moran Cancer Foundation:
The Connor Moran Cancer Foundation is the longest-thriving nonprofit organization serving South Florida families affected by cancer. In 1992, this charitable organization was founded as a legacy to two-year-old Connor Moran who lost his battle with cancer. Connor Moran pioneered pediatric cancer support and continues to develop unique patient programs addressing the needs of pediatric and adult cancer patients. The Connor Moran Cancer Foundation collaborated with medical facilities, psychosocial support agencies, and other area nonprofits to further ensure that every cancer patient’s needs are met and that no individual or family faces their diagnosis alone. Connor Moran is governed by a board of directors comprised of patients, parents and professionals who have been personally affected by cancer. For more information, please visit www.connormoran.org.
