Hi everyone! My name is Hope Catalano, and I’m raising money for a cause that means a lot to me , the National Brain Tumor Society.

Brain tumors have personally affected my life in a devastating way. My mother passed away from glioblastoma, an aggressive stage 4 form of brain cancer, and my half-sisters also lost their father and their aunt to the exact same type of cancer. Seeing this disease take so much from the people I love has shown me firsthand how deeply it impacts not just the individual but their families and entire communities.

Because of this, raising awareness and supporting research is something that means a lot to me. The mission of the National Brain Tumor Society is to drive the discovery of new treatments and ultimately a cure for brain tumors while improving the lives of patients and families affected by this disease.

Every contribution, big or small, truly makes a difference. Even just a few dollars can help move this mission forward and reach those who need it most.

If you can’t donate right now, sharing this fundraiser is also incredibly helpful. Thank you so much for your kindness and generosity. It means the world to me.
