How Rally Tennessee Started
Rally Tennessee was founded in 2010 by Nashville native Elaine Kay after her son James survived a rare childhood cancer thanks to a lifesaving clinical trial. Inspired by the research that gave her family hope, Elaine helped bring Rally’s mission to Tennessee.
Since then, Rally Tennessee has played a key role in raising more than $47.5 million to fund childhood cancer research around the world. Supported by dedicated volunteers, community partners and leadership groups across the state, Rally Tennessee also provides resources, programs and support for pediatric oncology families.
Together, we’re bringing hope to children and families facing childhood cancer throughout Tennessee.
