PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- Children's Hospital of Philadelphia received two grants totaling $700,000 on Wednesday.

The money comes from Hyundai Hope on Wheels, a nonprofit committed to finding a cure for childhood cancer.

The grants will fund research by Dr. Kathrin Bernt and Dr. Jeremy Grenier, both doctors at CHOP.

Wednesday's event also served as a handprint ceremony, where kids impacted by cancer give their painted handprints to be used on a Hyundai vehicle.
