Executive Director- Noah's Bandage Project, Nonprofit Noah Wilson (my son) was diagnosed with cancer in April of 2014 (when he was only 6 years old), but never let it change his passion to help others. He always had a huge heart, and was constantly looking for ways to help people. When his treatment began, he found himself getting pokes almost daily. The hospital where he was being treated did not have cool bandages, leaving the children there having to settle for the boring brown ones. Noah saw this as an opportunity to help his fellow patients, and decided that he wanted to start collecting cool and fun bandages for his new friends. You see, Noah knew that a bandage is so much more than just a wound cover and wanted to help others see how awesome a cool and fun bandage could be. It was also a sense of identity and brought hope and smiles to fellow patients. These kids need to experience fun things however they can! Our mission is to end childhood cancer through awareness, support, and the gift of hope. We collect fun and colorful bandages and send them all over the world. We also raise money for targeted pediatric cancer research that stays in Kansas City but is shared worldwide. Noah's Bandage Project has collected over 6.5M individual bandages and donated $1M to fund pediatric cancer research through Children's Mercy Hospital in Kansas City. Thanks to you and our community, Noah's Bandage Project is bringing hope to kids fighting cancer!
