The Emilio Nares Foundation (ENF) provides information and support for the parents of children who have cancer. Our resource directory provides updates on treatments, medical information, community support systems for financial assistance, and emotional support.

Five-year-old Emilio Nares spent almost half of his life fighting cancer. On October 15, 2000 his battle ended. Before he died, Emilio captured the hearts of thousands of San Diegans, moving 1,400 people, mostly Latino, to join the national bone marrow registry to help him find a matching donor. Because so many people joined the marrow registry in Emilio's name, scores of future patients with life-threatening illnesses will have the chance for life.
