Miles For Hope Supporters Go The Extra Mile in Support of Brain Tumor Research

CLEARWATER, FL, May 14, 2011

Miles For Hope, a non-profit organization dedicated to raising awareness and funds for brain tumor research, uses the help of its supporters to host fundraising events throughout the country.

"We are grateful for what our supporters do to help us find a cure for brain tumors," said Bob Gibbs, Founder of Miles For Hope and a seven-year brain cancer survivor. "Their efforts will advance our mission in finding safe and effective treatments that are available to all brain cancer patients." Gibbs said he would like to make individual fundraising events (IFEs) a stronger part of the organization's fundraising strategy as a way to increase awareness and funding for brain tumors.

Supporters, like Jennifer and Eric Gillett, will represent Miles For Hope in the Hudson Crossing Triathlon in Schuylerville, NY on June 13. Other fundraisers include the Fashion For Hope show in Clearwater, FL on September 17th of this year and Tiara's Walk in Jeffersonville, IN on May 19th, 2012

Our goal at Miles for Hope is to provide a complete source for cutting edge treatment and support for both the patient and care givers. There are many wonderful sources of information on the internet for brain tumors, and our goal is to compile these resources at one location. Here you will find a large support forum full of information, the most current clinical trial information, breaking news regarding brain tumors, and other support and awareness tools for your use in combating and fighting brain tumors.
