part of the The John McNicholas Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation differs from many other foundations in two important respects. First, 100% of the money you commit goes into furthering our mission. 
We will push for advancements in the care and treatment of pediatric brain tumor patients by facilitating better coordination of information between patients and providers, improving the quality of life for patients, and funding specifically targeted pediatric brain tumor research and treatment options to achieve our ultimate goal: the eradication of pediatric brain tumors.
