About Us

Hunter’s Heroes, Inc. is a non-profit organization that was founded in loving memory of Hunter Dean Scott who bravely battled brain cancer for 3 years. Hunter became our angel on July 2, 2011 at the age of 7. He amazed his family and community with his smile and compassion. This organization is our way of honoring Hunter’s fight to find a cure and giving to children and families that are affected by childhood cancer. Hunter’s Heroes, Inc. is recognized by the Internal Revenue Code section 501(c)(3).

The mission of Hunter’s Heroes, Inc. is to raise funds for brain tumor research and advances in treatment; increase childhood cancer awareness; and provide uplifting gifts and monetary contributions to families with a child diagnosed with cancer. We are devoted to provide smiles to patients, hope to their families, and support to their battle against cancer. Our fundraising activities allow us to contribute monetary donations to childhood cancer research initiatives as well as provide monetary support and care packages to children and their families that are battling cancer. Care packages are created for oncology patients at local hospitals in the MD, VA, and Washington, DC area.

The non-profit was founded and is managed by Hunter’s parents, Sandy and Eric Scott; his aunt, Tabbetha Russell; and his cousin, Dawn Barrett. While we would give anything to have Hunter here with us, our promise to Hunter was to ensure that his bravery and smile live on; to ensure that we fight to help find a cure. To do this, we have established Hunter’s Heroes, Inc. to support childhood cancer awareness and a cure. Our experience showed us that childhood cancer affects too many children. One child is one too many. Together, we can make a difference in the hope that one day no parent has to hear that their child has cancer.
