This is just one step we have been able to take because of those who have helped the foundation. We are so thankful to the hospital, our board, our advisory members, like Mike Babcock and everyone who has supported our efforts to help these needy children."

"I am proud to support the Chase Away OMS Foundation," said Babcock. "Their commitment to making a difference in the lives of children and families battling cancer should be commended."
