Carson's Crusaders Foundation is a 501(C)(3) nonprofit organization established in 2011 to provide support and assistance to children and families in Texas battling childhood cancers. 

Did you know the AVERAGEcost of a pediatric cancer diagnosis is over $830,000 spanning three years? The emotional impact of a child with cancer is devastating and managing the staggering financial toxicity of the treatment is practically impossible. This toxicity drives Carson’s Crusaders Foundation to worked tirelessly to raise money to help support Texas families affected by pediatric cancers.  In 10 years, Carson’s legacy has raised almost $2 MILLION DOLLARS ($1,890,789) for more than 1,000 precious, local families enduring the unthinkable.  As good stewards of your donations, Carson’s Crusaders Foundation has funded almost 38,000 trips to the hospital for life saving cancer treatments by distributing almost $1 MILLION in direct assistance (gas cards, parking, sibling gifts, Superstar activities, scholarships, and more) to our deserving families. We’ve also invested in programs to promote local education and advocacy for pediatric cancer awareness through our Paint the Town Gold initiatives. Currently, we are serving more than 100 families (and an additional 60+ siblings) receiving cancer care at Children’s Medical Center Dallas & Legacy Campus in Plano, Medical City Children’s Hospital in Dallas, Cook’s Children’s Hospital in Ft. Worth, andMcLane Hospital in Temple.
