First cousins, Hayden and Cameron suffered from the rare genetic disorder, Tay-Sachs disease. To honor these children and help other children and their families, Hayden and Cameron's families established The Cameron and Hayden Lord Foundation in 2001.

• Decrease the incidence of chronic and complex childhood diseases through medical research
• Increase the quality of emotional, spiritual and medical care for families facing these diseases

We fund medical research, pediatric palliative care research and programs, and bereavement support for children and their families.
