Attend an ABTA event in your community, or host your own.
Or donate to one of the many worthy foundations focused on finding a cure for Pediatric?Brain Tumors.? One of our favorities is The Cure Starts Now.
http://www.thecurestartsnow.org/
In years past we were actively involved in the American Cancer Society's Relay for Life.? This is a great general cancer charity and we have?lots of personal experience with friends and family?who have suffered from various cancers.?? Not to take anything away from this charity??but?a neglible amount?of the ACS?funds?go to Pediatric cancer research.?
Our personal fundraising efforts are now focused on fundraising for Pediatric Brain Tumor research since there is so little focus on it and so few treatment options for these kids.? They deserve much more.
