Kelly and Chu Introduce Resolution to Designate September 3 as National Neuroblastoma Awareness Day | 2026-09-03 | 2026 | 2026-09 | Republican | House | PA | Mike Kelly | K000376 | kelly.house.gov | kelly | https://kelly.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Representatives Mike Kelly (PA-16) and Judy Chu (CA-28) introduced a resolution to designate September 3, 2026, as National Neuroblastoma Awareness Day, recognizing the children and families affected by neuroblastoma and the clinicians and researchers working to develop better treatments and ultimately find a cure. The resolution was inspired by Mikaela Hong, a La Cañada High School student, neuroblastoma patient and survivor, and founder of the Pediatric Hope Project, who has turned her own experience with neuroblastoma into advocacy for children and families facing pediatric cancer. Hong received Rep. Chu’s 2026 Youth of the Year Award in recognition for her advocacy. “Establishing an official Neuroblastoma Awareness Day resolution gives lawmakers and communities the opportunity to help elevate public understanding, foster early detection, and offer meaningful support to families navigating this difficult diagnosis,” said Rep. Mike Kelly, Co-Chair of the Congressional Childhood Cancer Caucus. “It is critical to spur the development of safer, more effective treatments and ultimately giving young patients a better chance at a healthy future. As a Co-Chair of both the Congressional Childhood Cancer Caucus and the House Cancer Caucus, I’m proud to support efforts in Congress that advance lifesaving pediatric cancer research and help ensure doctors and researchers have the tools they need to develop better treatments and, ultimately, find cures.” | 1 | 2026-09-04T09:19:37Z | 2026-09-04T09:20:58Z |
