PEDIATRIC BRAIN TUMOR FOUNDATION

2009 Baltimore/Washington Ride for KidsĀ®

Marcy Rich's Fundraising Page

I can't describe how thrilled I am to be sharing this photograph with you.  Danielle has just began her second year of college at Northeastern University . She  loves school, is doing great and is studying Behavorial Neuroscience. She says she wants to be an anesthesiologist  and I urge her on, however, we all know that a declared major in college can change frequently. In February 2009 she hit the 7 year mark of being cancer free.  With the support of family, friends and the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation (PBTF) we were able to fight this disease and win, however there are many other children and families that have not been as fortunate.  Due to the research conducted, more children are being cured and more brain tumor survivors are entering college than ever before, some of them receiving scholarships from the PBTF as Danielle has.  

I am asking that you support me in my efforts to assist the PBTF in finding the cause and cure for pediatric brain tumors by making a monetary donation.  The money raised will continue to be used for cancer research and for family support programs to improve the quality of life for children with cancer and for brain tumor survivors.  Your contributions are 100% tax deductible and will help me reach my goal of $15,000.

Thank you in advance for your support and consideration.  Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to make a contribution to my fundraising efforts. I hope you will join the quest to find the cause and cure for childhood brain tumors.  

Sincerely,

Marcy
