Hyundai Hope On Wheels, a charity supporting pediatric cancer research, is expected to give a $50,000 grant to Maine Medical Center next week for its Maine Children’s Cancer Program.
The Hyundai Motor America-funded charity said Thursday it will present a $50,000 Hyundai Impact Award on Aug. 19 to Dr. John Bancroft and the hospital’s Maine Children’s Cancer Program “for their proven track record in providing excellent patient care to families affected by pediatric cancer and to support their continued efforts.” Maine Medical Center has received $400,000 total from Hope on Wheels since 2010.
