FUNDRAISING TIPS & FAQ

Your participation and fundraising directly support individuals with brain cancer and their families; providers who are pursuing integrative approaches to healing; and researchers who are investigating traditional and complementary cancer-related therapies.

Celebrate differently! Ask friends and family to donate to your fundraiser instead of giving traditional birthday or holiday gifts.
Dine-to-Donate: Partner with a local restaurant to donate a percentage of sales on a specific day.
