WAUWATOSA, Wis. (CBS 58) -- Children battling cancer in southeast Wisconsin will now have an extra helping hand, thanks to a $100,000 grant from Hyundai.  That financial support comes from the company's Hope on Wheels program, that started in 1998 and since then, has given more than $200 million out to institutions across the country. On Friday, local kids treated in the MACC Fund Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders at Children's Wisconsin in Wauwatosa were able to celebrate in-person. Patients painted their hands with red, green and blue before pressing them onto a gleaming white Hyundai parked outside of the hospital's corporate center.
