PADRES Contra El Cáncer (PADRES) is an organization committed to improving the quality of life for Latino children with cancer and their families. PADRES programs, and services, while primarily designed for the Latino community, serve childhood cancer patients from ALL ethnic and economic backgrounds, so that no family is ever turned away. Celebrating 27 years of service, PADRES brings together children, families, healthcare professionals and community leaders to promote a comprehensive understanding of childhood cancer and other blood disorders as well as effective methods for treatment. Since 2005, actress Eva Longoria has served as the organization's National Spokesperson. To learn more about PADRES, visit www.IAmHOPE.org, www.facebook.com/IAmHOPE.org or twitter.com/IAmHOPE.
