A partnership has been formed between Stripes Convenience Stores and M.D. Anderson Cancer Center involving childhood cancer for Pediatric Cancer Awareness Month.

100% of donations go directly to pediatric research at the Children's Hospital at M.D. Anderson and the Pediatric Education and Creative Arts Program, which provides classroom instruction to help keep children who are currently under treatment at their correct grade level in school, as well as a creative arts program for children in treatment.

The goal of this partnership is to raise over $1,000,000 in September that will go directly to children and pediatric cancer research.

To participate in the program, just donate your change after purchases in any Stripes Convenience Store.
