The Brain Tumor Foundation for Children does not receive any government funding to provide its services. It relies solely on the generosity of individual donors, grants from foundations and corporate giving programs, and proceeds raised through BTFC fundraisers which include the J. Smith Lanier & Co. Charity Classic, Flight of the Butterflies, and William’s Walk & Run.

Donations from individuals make up a major portion of gifts received by BTFC.  These gifts are extremely important -- they are the life's blood of our work.  A donation can be made in memory or in honor of a loved one or friend, in celebration of a birthday, anniversary, marriage, graduation or other special event.  Every donation is special to us.

Donating through PayPal is easy and secure. Gifts received in this manner will be listed in our newsletter and the gift honoree (or in the case of a memorial gift, the family of the deceased) will receive a letter informing them that a gift was made in their name. Just be sure to include in the “comments” section the reason for your gift and details about honoree, whom to notify, etc.

If you are considering setting up a fund or foundation to honor your child and to help other families, we hope you'll consider partnering with BTFC instead!  With our extensive experience and contacts, we can help give your efforts a higher profile while maintaining your child's legacy.  Just give us a call at 404-252-4107, and we'll be happy to explain how it works.  By working together we can make an even greater difference!
