December 2016

With the holiday season just around the corner, many want to give a gift that is significant and will also make a difference!

Denise Bebenek founded Meagan’s Walk to raise awareness about paediatric brain tumours and funds for much needed research. Her determination grew, starting with the first Meagan’s Walk. Now as a community united by hope, Meagan’s Walk has directed more than $4.5 million to ground-breaking paediatric brain tumour research and discoveries that are changing treatments and outcomes for children with brain tumours.

Meagan’s Walk is a volunteer, community and not-for-profit organization that keeps making a difference! Dr. Christian Smith, Operations Manager at The Arthur and Sonia Labatt Brain Tumour Research Centre, says, “Without grassroots funding, researchers would have to frame their research according to government funding levels. There would be no funding to support new project ideas.”

This holiday season, please help make a difference. Your support is greatly appreciated!
