Get tough (and muddy) for DIPG Research
Focus on a Critical Cause
Step up for DIPG and represent Abbie's Army at a Tough Mudder event to raise vital funds for Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma research.
By participating, you’ll be making a significant impact in the fight against this devastating childhood cancer.
Why crawl, climb, run, swim (and sometimes jump through fire) for DIPG Research?
Taking part in a Tough Mudder Challenge for DIPG not only challenges you physically but also brings hope to future families and children affected by this aggressive cancer. DIPG is most commonly diagnosed between ages 5 and 7. The current survival rate for Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma remains heartbreakingly low, with only around 2% of children surviving more than two years after diagnosis. Your efforts will directly support groundbreaking research and provide much-needed resources for those in need.
​
DIPG research is significantly underfunded compared to other cancers. This lack of funding hinders progress in developing effective treatment options and ultimately finding a cure.
​
Your efforts can make a tangible difference in the lives of children and families affected by this fatal illness.
