Who is Malcolm Sutherland-Foggio?
Malcolm Sutherland-Foggio is the Founder and Ex Officio Chairman of Make Some Noise: Cure Kids Cancer Foundation, Inc., a 501 established to raise funds exclusively for childhood cancer research and increase awareness for these diseases.
Malcolm had led a normal childhood as the youngest of three boys until he began to experience pain in his hip at age ten. Thus began his journey into childhood cancer. Diagnosed in early December 2008 with a pediatric bone cancer called Pelvic Ewing's Sarcoma, he immediately began raising funds for research and speaking out about pediatric cancer. As he got further into his treatments, he learned that 1 in every 320 children are diagnosed with cancer, and that pediatric cancer receives a mere 3% of the cancer research dollars. Eight rounds of chemotherapy into his 14-round treatment protocol, he experienced the loss of a young cancer patient just two doors down from his own hospital room. Malcolm was deeply moved by this child's passing, and ten-year-old Malcolm noted that someone needed to "make some noise" about childhood cancer, and announced that he needed to start a foundation.
