T.J. Martell Foundation Newsroom - Profile and News Archive
T.J. Martell Foundation was founded in 1974 by music industry executive Tony Martell who promised his young son who was dying of cancer that he would raise $1 million for research so other kids with cancer could live longer lives.
The T.J. Martell Foundation mission is to cure cancer by bringing the music community together to fund high-risk, high-reward cancer research that could lead to trailblazing advancements in early detection, screening, and treatments. The money we provide helps advance clinical trials and drug discoveries for various doctors, scientists, and hospitals. Some of the hospitals and clinics supported include the UCSF Helen Diller Family Comprehensive Cancer Center, Children's Hospital Los Angeles, City of Hope, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, and Mount Sinai Tisch Cancer Center.
