If cancer has touched your life, then you know the struggles a person with cancer faces. Day to day life can be exhausting – going through treatments, endless doctor appointments – not to mention the many medications can all take a toll.
When that person is your child, you would do ANYTHING to help them beat the monster that has taken over their little body.
But for some parents, there is nothing they can do. Their child has a rare brain tumor called Diffused Intrinsic Pontine Glioma or DIPG. DIPG has no cure and is terminal upon diagnosis. They can’t even try and fight!
DIPG is considered rare by drug companies and that means it is not a priority for them to find a drug that provides HOPE to the kids who receive this diagnosis and desperately need a cure. It is up to us!
We at The Gold Hope Project are honored to offer free photography sessions to the families of children fighting cancer across the world, something we have done since the start of the organization. This is a priceless gift to the families in so many ways. Your donations to The Gold Hope Project are not only funding photography sessions for fighters, but also important research in the fight against DIPG through the DIPG Collaborative. By joining forces with the DIPG collaborative to help fund over $500,000 in promising research grants. It is our hope that one of these grants will lead to a CURE for DIPG and with your help we can make even bigger strides in the fight against this terminal pediatric brain tumor.
Tomorrow, as people around the world support important causes for #GivingTuesday, donate to The Gold Hope Project or start a fundraiser to help fund better cancer treatments and possibly a cancer cure!
