History

From 1991 to 2011 CureSearch served as the federal grantee for Children's Oncology Group grants issued by the National Cancer Institute (NCI). In September 2011, CureSearch announced it would work with the COG and NCI to transition its grants management role in order to focus on fundraising and expand funding opportunities to more fully resource the entire children's cancer community.
