Story

There were no signs of Mackenzie Clyde's illness until the day she became sick at school. Following a visit to the hospital, doctors discovered something on a scan of Mackenzie's brain; she was diagnosed with Medulloblastoma, a cancerous brain tumor. After months of radiation and chemotherapy, Mackenzie had a six week break. Her mother, Courtney, was hopeful that the treatment had worked. In October 2019, the Clydes learned that Mackenzie's cancer had returned in multiple parts of her brain. With no other options, Mackenzie is now on oral chemotherapy and is spending time at home with her mother.

Every day, 46 children are diagnosed with cancer yet the treatment options remain the same. Despite the best efforts of medical professionals, there is not nearly enough funding for childhood cancer research to help the many children facing their own battle with cancer. Join us as we raise awareness and funding for safer and more effective treatment options for kids. Our goal is to raise $4,600 in honor of the 46 children diagnosed each day. Like, share, and donate today to help us find a cure for the many cancers affecting our kids.

Raise awareness. Raise funds. Provide hope.
