The Compete to Defeat Brain Tumors 5K Run/Walk aims to advance research for better treatments and a cure while honoring those affected. Inspired by my parents’ battles with brain tumors, we created this event to drive change and raise awareness. After covering race cost, all proceeds go to the American Brain Tumor Association (ABTA).
Heads of Hope is a 5k brain cancer fundraiser in Brunswick, NY. Along with the race it is a community event with games, music, snacks, and prizes! We would love for you to join us and help us reach our goal of $15,000!

The need for better brain tumor treatments is greater than ever. That’s why we’re meeting hope head on—because donations lead to research, research leads to better treatments, and better treatments bring us closer to a cure.
The ABTA has been a top resource for brain tumor educational materials for over 50 years. All of our educational brochures are carefully reviewed by brain tumor medical experts, and brain tumor patients and caregivers.. These brochures are 100% free for patients and caregivers.
Donating to the ABTA is a meaningful way to recognize someone whose life has been impacted by a brain tumor. With your gift, you can honor key milestones in a brain tumor survivor’s life, or convey the sense of loss when a friend or loved one loses their battle with this disease.
