America's Baby Cancer Foundation

About

Founded in 2000 in Long Beach, California, as Sebastian's Baby Cancer Foundation by Bernard and Antonia Hicks, following the loss of their child, Sebastian.  Sebastian lost his fight with cancer at the age of nineteen months.  Bernard and Antonia realized during Sebastian’s course of treatment for a rare cancer of the neck and brain, the need for aid and education for themselves, their son and for other families faced with baby cancer.
In 2002, the organization's name was changed to America's Baby Cancer Foundation to better reflect the expanding geographic reach of the Foundation, and the growing network of families who have suffered like experiences and who are working to build and support this entity.
