About Me

Snowdrop Foundation provides funding for continued pediatric cancer research at Texas Children’s Cancer Center, along with scholarships to college bound current pediatric cancer patients and childhood cancer survivors.
The snowdrop and it's connection with childhood cancer patients:
The snowdrop is the first flower to bloom in the spring, even blooming when snow is still on the ground. It is a hearty flower, nearly indestructible by nature. Childhood cancer patients demonstrate indestructible attitudes and spirit while battling the life threatening illness of childhood cancer.
The snowdrop symbolizes hope and purity. Snowdrop Foundation celebrates the hope that one day a cure for all childhood cancers will be found allowing the purity of every child to remain untouched by the devastating diagnosis of cancer.
The snowdrop comes in twenty different varieties but still only has one color, white. Childhood cancer comes in many varieties, but it still only has one effect, to destroy.
Finally, the Biblical legend of the snowdrop is that when Mary Magdalene saw Jesus crucified, she cried. Where her first tear hit the ground, a snowdrop grew. When parents of a child learn that their son or daughter has cancer, they cry.
Snowdrop Foundation wants to end those tears forever, and we can with your help.
