ABOUT THE FOUNDATION
Our goal is to share Kristen’s story with the world, inspiring concrete action to eradicate HPV-caused cancers. Through education and outreach, we aim to see young adults choosing to vaccinate themselves, mothers choosing to vaccinate their children, and healthcare providers successfully encouraging the vaccination of their patients. HPV-caused cancers are preventable and it is our mission to ensure no one suffers the same fate as our Kristen.
