Stats
In 2005, it was estimated there were 43,800 new cases of brain tumors in the US: accounting for 1.4 percent of all cancers, 2.4 percent of all cancer deaths, and 20–25 percent of pediatric cancers.
Over 2000 people younger than 20 years of age are diagnosed with malignant brain tumors each year, and although many more are surviving than in years past, none of their lives will ever be the same.
Climb for a Cure is about taking action. As a nonprofit organization, we are dedicated to spreading awareness about the impact of children’s brain cancer, and fundraising for specific research tools and programs that we know will make a difference.
