Our amazing family of Fundraising Groups

4 Aurora
4 Aurora has been set up by Margherita and Francesco Provenzano to raise much needed funds for research into this devastating disease. They named the Fundraising Group in memory of their beautiful daughter. Aurora was just 6 years old with her whole life ahead of her when she was diagnosed with a brain tumour. She fought a brave battle for three and a half years, but sadly lost the fight and left her parents and two sisters, Isabella and Chiara with a huge hole in their family.
Her parents wanted to do something to help because they know that right now another family somewhere is getting the news that their loved one has a brain tumour. They also want to raise awareness of brain tumours and let people know how shocking it is that only 1% of national cancer research spending is on brain tumours. When Aurora was in hospital, Margherita, Aurora's mother, actually remembers thinking, "why couldn't she have had leukaemia?" as she would then have stood a good chance of surviving.

Retired Fundraising Groups
Our Fundraising Groups are set up by families who have lost loved ones to brain tumours or have a loved one with a brain tumour diagnosis. Sometimes there comes a time when a family may wish to continue their work of raising awareness and funds, but in a less formal way.
We are grateful to all our Fundraising Groups, past and present, for the invaluable work they do within their communities to promote the brain tumour cause and make a difference in our mission to find a cure for all types of brain tumours.
The following are Fundraising Groups who have retired from active duty, but remain very much a part of our brain tumour community:
