Be a "Guardian of Brain Matter" you too! Join our team
We walk to celebrate Mike, John, Katherine, Jeremy and so many others. We walk to support their care givers. We walk in memory of John, Kathy, and all other wonderful people lost for brain cancer. Join our team and help us keep a strong network of support.
On May 5, we will have a fun and upbeat team (the "Guardians of Brain Matter") walking (or running if this is your thing) in the Race for Hope DC organized by the National Brain Tumor Society. I'd be honored if you could join our team and/or contribute to this cause. Feel free to share this page and invite your friends to join us!
There are more than 100 distinct types of primary brain tumors, each with its own spectrum of presentations, treatments, and outcomes. More than any other cancer, brain tumors can have lasting and life-altering physical, cognitive, and psychological impacts on a patient’s (and loved ones') life. And, despite years of research, brain cancer survival rates have remained little-changed in recent years, even while survival rates for many other cancers have been significantly improved. We need to raise greater awareness and funds to this very unforgiving illness. We need to continue to work towards a cure for those affected by it.
