2. Can we deduct our CD purchase and/or donations through Stomp Out Cancer, Inc.?

A. Your CD purchase you can deduct using your receipt.  (If you do not have one, please request one to be e-mailed to you: info@stompoutcancer.com).   We are working to reach our goal of $5,000.00 before we start sending funds to our research partners, so please help us by ordering a CD today!

3. How much money from the CD sales actually goes to Ewing’s Sarcoma research?

A. All of it.  Every penny.  If we can do out of pocket expenses, we will.  Our goal is to raise as much money as we can for Ewing’s Sarcoma research, and that means that we are dedicated personally to the cause.  From time to time we may need to deduct expenses that we cannot afford out of pocket (CD duplication), but we also try to compensate that deduction with our own personal money so that our fund raising efforts are not effected.

4. What music is on your CD Compilations?

A. A lot of talented artists from various genres are on the "Stomp Out Cancer" CD Volumes.  We have Country, Pop, Alternative, Rock, and many other genres.  The feedback we have gotten from teenagers to the elderly is that "there is a song or songs on there for everyone…." and we love hearing that!  Samples of each song on our volumes can be found on our CDBaby.com page, just click here.

5. Where does the money you raise go?

A. Stomp Out Cancer, Inc. donates every single penny raised in $5,000 increments to The Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Care Center At John Hopkins (here) , and our donations help fund their research for Ewing’s Sarcoma for less toxic treatment methods and early detection tests.
