Olivia is a joyful, loving, and incredibly special little girl who brightens every room with her smile. She brings so much happiness to our family and to everyone who knows her. Our greatest wish is simply to give her the longest, fullest, happiest life possible.
Olivia was diagnosed with DIPG, a rare and aggressive pediatric brain tumor with very limited treatment options. Because DIPG is so rare, research has historically been underfunded — leaving families with few answers and too few advances for far too long.
But there is hope. Progress is being made because of research, clinical trials, and the dedication of doctors and scientists working tirelessly to find better treatments and ultimately a cure. That progress depends on funding.
We are incredibly grateful for organizations like ChadTough Defeat DIPG Foundation and Tough2Gether, whose mission is to accelerate research and bring new treatment options to children like Olivia.
Every donation helps fund critical research, support innovative clinical trials, and move us closer to more effective treatments. Supporting this work is one of the most meaningful ways to create hope — not only for Olivia, but for every child and family facing DIPG.
Thank you for loving Olivia, supporting research, and helping push this important work forward.
Donations made to Tough2gether Foundation are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law. All donations are made to Tough2gether Foundation may be used to support families facing pediatric cancer, related programs, and charitable initiatives at the Foundation’s discretion.
