The Kennesaw Mountain High School Lady Mustangs Basketball Team recently held a "pink out" fundraiser in memory of classmate Faith Cline and in honor of brain tumor survivor Emily Vonck. Emily's sister, Anna, plays on the Lady Mustangs team, which raised $500 for BTFC. Way to go Lady Mustangs! |
Toy Drive by Lassiter High School |
Haley and Carley Zugel, long-time supporters of BTFC and Lassiter High School seniors, helped organize a toy drive for BTFC this past December after approaching the club presidents of both the National Honor Society and Science National Honor Society at Lassiter. Within two weeks students had gathered over 150 toys and $700 in gift cards! Before and after pictures of the BTFC toy room demonstrate the impressive results! Kudos to Haley, Carley and all Lassiter students who participated!

| Established in 1983 in Atlanta, GA, the Brain Tumor Foundation for Children was the first non-profit organization in the United States to focus on pediatric brain tumor disease. The Foundation's mission is: "To provide financial assistance, social support, and information for families of children with brain and spinal cord tumors; fund research projects that improve treatment options and search for a cure; and raise public awareness of the disease and advocate on behalf of children who are affected." BTFC serves children and families throughout Georgia and the Southeast. Our south Florida chapter, Christina's Kidz, is dedicated to helping Florida families. |
