"text": "About 1 in 285 children get cancer before turning 20, with the survival rate for childhood cancer being about 80%. Malia Grace Peterson was born on February 18, 2001. Passionate about life and an inspiration to those she met, she also became a patient of childhood cancer, being diagnosed with Wilms tumor. After a long fight, she passed away on December 7, 2010. Eat Ice Cream for Breakfast Day, which takes place on the anniversary of Malia's birth, is a day to \"support, remember, and party on with those touched by childhood cancer.\"\nDuring Malia's family's last trip together, Malia's Make-A-Wish trip, the family ate ice cream for breakfast at Give Kids the World. Eat Ice Cream for Breakfast Day started out as a posthumous birthday celebration for Malia in 2013, being celebrated by family and friends. The following year it expanded to a day to honor all children who are battling or who have battled cancer. It supports kids with cancer and their families and increases awareness about childhood cancer. Participants eat ice cream for breakfast and make posts on social media including what they are eating and who they are eating it for. Some also take part in additional efforts to eradicate childhood cancer.",
