The Portland Pediatric Oncology Meeting grew from the Sam Day Foundation Endowed Lectureship, which has brought leaders in childhood cancer to Portland for the past four years. The Sam Day Foundation, the meeting's Founding Legacy Partner, continues to inspire the meeting, and the endowed lectureship remains its keynote program.

The expanded meeting is also made possible by the generous support of the Morgan Adams Foundation, recognized as a Founding Sponsor. Together, these partners are helping build a new forum for collaboration and discovery in childhood cancer.
