Please donate today to help ensure life-saving progress can continue in the labs. Without the support of NFCR, which relies on individuals like you, promising cancer research programs may go unfunded, and the quest for cures will be stalled. https://xmrrwallet.com/cmx.phubs.ly/Q03nrDWM0 All gifts made before the June 30th deadline will be MATCHED until we raise $50,000 for critical cancer research programs. ✨

We are saddened to learn of the passing of actress Kelley Mack, best known for her role as Addy in The Walking Dead, who died at the age of 33 after a battle with glioma, a type of brain cancer that affects the brain or spinal cord. Gliomas are aggressive tumors that arise from the glial cells in the central nervous system and can be difficult to treat due to their location and complexity. Our hearts are with Kelley’s family, friends, and fans during this difficult time. Her story is a reminder of why advancing research for brain cancers like glioma is so critical.
