About Band of Parents
Band of Parents Inc. directs its largest recent support to Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, including a $759,122 research grant in 2025 and a $286,528 research grant in 2024. That pattern fits a funder built around neuroblastoma and pediatric cancer research rather than broad health philanthropy. The foundation also backs clinical and family-facing work, with awards to Montefiore Medical Center, Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles, Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, and Solving Kids’ Cancer. The grant record shows repeated support for the same institutions across multiple years, especially in research roles, which suggests a steady relationship with pediatric oncology programs rather than one-off gifts. Charitable support appears alongside research funding, indicating an interest in both scientific progress and services around affected children and families. In the most recent grants, the foundation’s largest commitments are concentrated in New York hospitals and organizations, while California and Pennsylvania recipients also appear in the list. Across the available record, Band of Parents Inc. is tied to disease-specific funding for neuroblastoma, pediatric oncology research, and family support connected to pediatric cancer.
