Why Madeleine wants to be a voice for children fighting cancer:

I want to be a voice for children fighting cancer, because a cure desperately needs to be found for this awful disease. Too many children are being diagnosed, including a couple of my schoolmates, and one of my dance studio friends. With more awareness, and more funding, we can find a cure!
