Waves of Gray Brain Cancer / Tumor Awareness
OUR MISSION:
The Waves of Gray – Brain Cancer/Tumor Awareness was created in memory of Fred K. Fenton II. Fred lost his battle with brain cancer (glioblastoma) in November 2016. When he was sick, we felt extremely helpless, as caregivers often do.
Our goal is to bring together the Jacksonville brain tumor community, bring awareness for this horrible disease & raise funds for brain cancer/tumor research.
Fred lost his battle, but our fight continues…
Supporting: Baptist/MD Anderson Cancer Center
Waves of Gray continues to support Baptist MD Anderson Cancer Center. Funds raised will benefit the Waves of Gray Neuro-Oncology Endowment supporting research programs through Baptist MD Anderson Cancer Center in Jacksonville, Florida.
