Keaton Raphael Memorial / Facebook

When anyone hears the words “you have cancer,” it turns their lives upside down. But it can be even more traumatic for families when a child has cancer. The Keaton Raphael Memorial was started in honor of Keaton Raphael, who lost his nine-month battle with neuroblastoma when he was five years old, by his parents. It provides support, resources and education to Northern California families affected by childhood cancer. As we head into September, which is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, we’ll learn more about this local organization and the extent of the services they provide.
