FINDING A CURE FOR BRAIN TUMORS!

IN MEMORIAM:

It is with great sorrow that we inform you that Veronica Ronan, the founder of the B.R.A.I.N Foundation, passed away on September 13th, 2009 after a long and courageous battle against cancer.

Veronica gallantly fought this disease for 13 1/2 years.

She was a strong, wonderful, loving, brave, caring person and a vigilant advocate for finding a cure for brain tumors.

One of Veronica's final wishes was that her husband, Tom Woodmaska, continue the good work of the B.R.A.I.N. Foundation in her memory. Tom has been honored to accept Veronica's request.

VERONICA RONAN

VERONICA WILL ALWAYS BE IN OUR HEARTS
AND MINDS FOREVER!

B.R.A.I.N. FUNDS RAISED TO DATE

As of 12/31/2009, the B.R.A.I.N. Foundation has succeeded in raising a total of $262,951.28.

To all of our contributors:

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

The B.R.A.I.N. Foundation was founded in March 2004 by Veronica Ronan, a 3-time brain cancer survivor. After a great deal of research by the founder, she came to realize that brain cancer has been and remains an orphan disease for three reasons:

there exists a lack of awareness about the disease generally and the statistics relating to it
brain tumor research has clearly been an underfunded and underserved field of research
there are a lack of champions for the cause

It also became evident to the founder that although amazing medical discoveries were taking place in the world of brain tumor research, those discoveries were not becoming a reality due to a lack of funding for medical research dedicated to the cause. The B.R.A.I.N. Foundation was therefore created in an effort to change that by raising money for medical research dedicated SOLELY to finding a cure for brain tumors.

Please join us in becoming a champion for this most worthy cause!
