2026 RSM POL - Sofia's Hope

Our silent auction holds a profound purpose – to extend a helping hand to the young warriors battling childhood cancer through the noble efforts of Sofia's Hope. With unwavering determination, we aim to raise funds that will pave the way for comprehensive and compassionate childhood cancer programs. Every bid and contribution resonates with a commitment to transform lives, bringing hope, support, and the promise of a brighter future to these courageous children and their families. Together, we become the beacon of light illuminating the path towards better treatments, care, and ultimately, a world free from the shadows of childhood cancer.

Sofia's Hope was inspired by the life and death of Sofia Blanco at the age of thirteen. And it is because of her and the over 17,000 children in the U.S. diagnosed every year with cancer that we will fight cancer by:

​Raising childhood cancer awareness and the fact that children are dying every day waiting for promising new treatments;

Funding childhood cancer research and advances in treatment, especially as it relates to their long-term effects (including prevention, detection and treatment); and

Offering programs that enhance the quality of life of children with cancer.
