Each year on Giving Tuesday, the Vivienne C. Finn Foundation invites our community to come together and make a meaningful difference for children and families facing pediatric cancer.
This is one of our most meaningful nights of the year. It is a chance to come together, honor the kids we’ve lost, and reflect on how far we’ve come in the fight against DIPG and DMG.
Guests experience an evening filled with inspiration, powerful stories, and unforgettable moments, all while raising critical funds to fuel groundbreaking research. Morning of gala there is a research Symposium where we hear from researchers on their recent findings and breakthroughs.
