In 2027, Team Hope is riding to support the Gail Blodgett Fund.

The Gail Blodgett Fund supports innovative clinical and translational research within SWOG's genitourinary cancer research committee, advancing discoveries that improve treatment options and quality of life for patients with bladder and other GU cancers. Established in Gail's honor, the fund helps maximize the scientific value of patient-contributed specimens and supports research that deepens our understanding of tumor biology, paving the way for more personalized and effective cancer care.
