Today 60 people were diagnosed with brain cancer, and they didn't know what to do. This is why we turn to you. Those 60 people won't be able to find us in the vast pool of chaos and misdiagnosis, and wrong answers without your help.

Today we are asking for a donation, which you can make on our website. A donation to help us move forward and build awareness so that others will find us, and will find the answers they need to end brain cancer in their lives. Those 60 people need us today - they need answers quickly and they need the right answer now.  They need to know that we are out there and we have the answers they need to extend their lives or even save them.

The only way we can do that is with your help and support.  We ask YOU, our friends, loved one's and supporters to HELP us End Brain Cancer by  donating $10.00 dollars. Help us End Brain Cancer by raising $30,000 this February. We can meet this goal if just 3,000 people donate $10 each. Your $10 donation will fund our programs, fund research, fund awareness, fund educating doctors and patients, and most importantly, help FUND THE CURE.
 
Thank you for your time, your passion, and your support.

Sincerely,
 
Chris Elliott Fund for Glioblastoma Brain Cancer Research

Member Testimonial

 
"Once again, one of our top referrers to our agency's website is the Chamber's website. What I find particularly notable:   
 
  • 100% of our visitors from the Chamber's site are new 
  • 6 page views per visitor on average, a much higher rate than the average of 2.4
  • Higher than average visit time
  • 0% bounce rate (in other words, they don't just hit the front page, go "oopies, wrong website", and leave right away).  
  •  
These stats are all better than the other membership organizations from whom we also get referrals. They're comparable to the ones we get from Facebook and Evite, which are most likely from friends of individuals who are already supporters."
