Help Us To Continue to Promote Blues in Northeast Pa., Support our
  "Charity Through Music"™ Events and in Promoting Blues and Live Music in NEPA

Endless Mountains Blues Festival™

Traditional blues is about heartache, bad luck, sorrow, illness, loss of love, loneliness, poverty 
and despair and loss of our natural beauty through destruction of our environment. We'd like to do 
what we can to use our musical talents to help those less fortunate. It's also about doing what we can to 
save and protect our region's natural resources, areas of natural beauty, and our planet's future. 
It's been singing the blues for a long time.

The cancers that attack children are different from the principal cancers of adults. 
Children frequently have a more advanced stage of cancer when they are first diagnosed. Only about 20% of adults with cancer show evidence that the disease has spread at the time of diagnosis, yet 80% of the children who are diagnosed with cancer have disease which has already spread to distant sites in the body.

Today, despite amazing research progress, cancer still kills more children than any other disease. Each year cancer kills more children between one and 20 years of age than asthma, diabetes, cystic fibrosis, and AIDS, combined.

The National Childhood Cancer Foundation is the only national organization focused solely on raising funds for research to “Conquer Kids’ Cancer.”  The Foundation supports the cooperative research of the Children’s Oncology Group, a network of physicians and scientists located at over 240 top children’s hospitals and cancer centers in the U.S. and beyond.  The Geisinger Medical Center, Danville, Pa.is one of them.  COG conducts ground-breaking research, and gives state-of-the-art care to infants, children, teens and young adults with cancer at over 235 institutions throughout North America, and at sites in Europe and Australia. This network treats over 90% of all children with cancer in North America. Working together, they find cures more quickly and efficiently than if each hospital worked alone.

The Childhood Cancer Gold Ribbon has become the unifying symbol for childhood 
cancer awareness, symbolizing the precious nature of all children and the golden flame 
of hope that burns brightly for childhood cancer patients, survivors, families and caregivers

Dedicated to conquering childhood cancer through research, education and support of the patients and their families. CURE's mission is to fund research and to support children with cancer and their families

A Haven Within the Hospital
Ronald McDonald Family Rooms are an extension of the Ronald McDonald House program, providing a haven within the hospital for the families of children undergoing treatment. The Ronald McDonald House is a home-away-from-home for the families of children hospitalized for treatment of cancer and other serious illnesses. The Family Room provides some comforts of home to alleviate the anxiety and frustration of the hospital environment. Families use the Family Room to rest, reflect or even freshen up with a shower. 
Refugee Assistance
RMHC joins the American Refugee Committee to address the medical, educational, and financial needs of families separated by civil unrest.
Working to Save Young Lives
Suicide is the third leading cause of death among children and youth between the ages of 10 and 24, according to the Center for Disease Control. In an effort to create awareness of this national health problem, create life-saving support for children at risk, and provide intervention tools for the people close to them, Ronald McDonald House Charities supports a number of suicide prevention initiatives

The mission of the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Program is to collect new, unwrapped toys during October, November and December each year and distribute those toys as Christmas gifts to needy children in the community in which the campaign is conducted. The primary goal of Toys for Tots is to deliver, through a shiny new toy at Christmas, a message of hope to needy youngsters that will motivate them to grow into responsible, productive, patriotic citizens and community leaders.

The objectives of Toys for Tots are to help needy children throughout the United States experience the joy of Christmas; to play an active role in the development of our nation's most valuable natural resource - our children; to unite all members of local communities in a common cause for three months each year during the annual toy collection and distribution campaign; to contribute to better communities in the future.

Founded in 1953 to foster the science of cancer immunology, which is based on the premise that the body's immune system can be mobilized against cancer. This field has been recognized throughout the world as offering great hope for the ultimate prevention and treatment of human cancer
