We Change the World Through Compassionate Support

Human Race Inc is a 501(c)(3) non-profit, formed to provide critical funding in support of those experiencing life changing medical conditions. We founded with a focus on providing support in the pediatric oncology healthcare space. Our research funding focus is centered around AML (Acute Myeloid Leukemia), and lung cancer. We have plans to expand into more facets of care as we grow! Our big vision is to provide support and research funding for patients and families affected by: Cystic Fibrosis, Diabetes, Sickle Cell, and Cardiovascular Disorders. We know a lifetime of treatment requires a lifetime of assistance. We want to help!

There are three main criteria we are focused on impacting:

Advancing Treatments:

Funding research is imperative, simply because there will always be a case to do better, until a disease state is eliminated. Until then, we can do better. We fund projects that advance treatment of pediatric oncology that are focused on broader quality of life outcomes. Survival is primary, but some side-effects are reminders forever. We’d love to eliminate the possibility of sterility (loss of reproductive function) through chemotherapy treatment. We want to help find solutions to side effects that yield the possibility of morbidity and mortality, and lessen the possibility of losing someone to the side-effects of receiving life saving treatment. We want to fund the future of treatment for the most complex cases, that they might one day have hope, and a cure.

We want to assist in improving treatment of pediatric cancer, and make it a positive experience of overcoming great adversity. We want to help make cancer better-treatable, more survivable, and eventually just a memory.

Reducing Trauma:

Life changing medical conditions are traumatic for both patients and their families. When considering the impact of an acute instance in comparison to a chronic state, there is great importance in reducing the overall negative impact on an affected person’s life. For one, it is an intense episode that passes, yet creates enduring effects on mental and physical health. To the other, it is a redundant system of reliving the discomfort of therapeutic treatments for the entire duration of the existence of a medical condition, which is sometimes the patient’s lifetime. To both, there are scars, many times unseen. We fund programs within health systems that provide human services, with the aim to improve the patient experience. Offering support utilities to keep life running, when a life changing medical condition is present, is an excellent way to support an entire family unit, and reduce stress. Less stressed family means less stressed patient, and better healing. Improved outcomes are possible through advancing patient experience, as well. The body follows the mind, and a better mental space leads to better healing. We fund projects that improve patient experience through conventional and unconventional ways.

As long as a program improves patients’ lives, we want to provide the on-ramp for that program’s success, through funding and provisions.

Improving Quality of Life:

Improvement of quality of life is a direct result of our actions above, and is ultimately where the heart of our organization beats. We set out with the directive to change the world for the better, and the evidence of our impact is in quality of life. We can help make treatments more effective and less traumatic. We can help support the family as a whole during the most difficult parts of their lives. Patients with lifetime conditions experience greater compliance with treatment schedules when they experience less trauma. Better compliance makes for better outcomes, avoids elective exacerbation of conditions, mitigates emergency medical interventions, and maximizes therapeutic impact of healthcare received. The intention of healthcare is to maximize quality of life by providing individual health based care. We are here to assist equally and equitably, to improve quality of life for all affected by life changing medical conditions.

Quality of life is our product. Everything we do, is within the mission of making the lives of people better.
