Accelerate Brain Cancer Cure, Inc.On October 3, 2015 a small team of warriors will stand together on the North Rim of the Grand Canyon with a shared mission: to beat brain cancer.
The Rim-to-Rim will take the team from the North Rim down to the canyon floor, across the canyon, then up to the South Rim over 21.1 miles and more than 10,000 feet of elevation change. It is a powerful metaphor for the race to end brain cancer. The canyon represents the valley of death of underfunded research. We know that funding brain tumor research will change the future for those diagnosed with brain cancer and that additional funding is needed to help ensure this future.

With your help we can not only accomplish a Rim-to- Rim run, we can capture and share the story of two women whose impact will extend beyond the walls of the canyon, inspiring and giving hope to those battling brain cancer.
Accelerate Brain Cancer Cure and 3000 Miles to a Cure share the goal to end brain cancer. We see the Rim-to-Rim effort as an incredible opportunity to ignite hope and action by creating a documentary film to tell the powerful story of two women racing to cross the valley of death.
Your support will help us reach our $100,000 fundraising goal and produce the "Crossing the Canyon" short documentary film, which will help Maria and BethAnn continue to inspire others!
