Hi Everyone!
Alex, Joey, and I have joined Team Adelia the Wonder Girl and plan to complete the 7-mile run/walk between August 10th-17th.
In 2023, Team Adelia the Wonder Girl raised over $106,000 for a promising clinical trial for kids with DIPG (diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma) and DMG (diffuse midline glioma, what Adelia has).
This year we will be dedicating all funds to the new and desperately needed Brain Tumor Center that bridges Dana Farber and Boston Children's Hospital. This center is being spearheaded by Dr. Baird, arguably the best pediatric neurosurgeon in the world, and Dr. Filbin, one of the most brilliant and motivated researchers in this space.
This center strives to develop personalized, precision medicine, where they can deliver rapid real-time molecular analysis to allow more effective treatments to start sooner. The center will also be developing support systems for families, a vital necessity and currently a missing piece in providing high quality continuum of care.
Every mile and each donation, no matter the size, supports The Dana-Farber Campaign, the Institute’s ambitious, multi-year fundraising effort, focused on supporting revolutionary research, extraordinary care, exceptional expertise, and other priorities, to help Dana-Farber accomplish its mission of preventing, treating, and defying cancer.
Together, we are helping Dana-Farber race toward the ultimate finish line: a world without cancer.
Thank you for your support!
Carrie, Alex, and Joey
