Pediatric Low Grade Astrocytomas are the most common form of children's brain tumor. PLGA kids need you!
Endurance Trust - Passion and Creativity
In 2006, The Endurance Trust began it's partnership with the PLGA Foundation to help them raise awareness of and funding for Pediatric Brain Tumor Research. Motivated by the son of one of our friends, Ben McDonald , we have been dedicating our races in his name. Race by race, dollar after dollar, these athletes endure the grueling pace of their event and are inspired by brain tumor kids like Ben who has the ability to truly endure.
Then, in 2009, Matt Nelson, President and Founder Endurance Trust, gathered his closest endurance athlete colleagues together to launch the Endurance Athlete Sponsorship Program. If you are an ENDURANCE Athelete – regardless of your age, income, ability, nationality or discipline – The Endurance Trust is here to help you cross the finish line and make a lasting difference in the lives of kids around the world! For the first time, endurance athletes, can not just train and compete in their endurance race, but raise funds for brain tumor research at the same time. By becoming a member of Endurance Trust the athlete commits to raising funds for the cause, and the Endurance Trust covers the race fee expenses for the athlete. It is a win-win.
