Prayers from Maria Children’s Cancer Foundation

Prayers from Maria Children’s Cancer Foundation Prayers From Maria is dedicated to putting an end to childhood brain cancer. Childhood glioma research is severely underfunded.
(269)

The Glioma family of tumors accounts for almost 45% of all tumors. They are the second-highest cause of cancer deaths among young people. 85-95% of children who are diagnosed with a malignant glioma die within five years. Over 97% of children with the worst of gliomas, diffuse pontine gliomas, die within three years. No child should have to suffer from such a horrible disease. No family should hav

e to endure the pain of standing by helplessly as they watch their beautiful, innocent child slowly die from an illness that takes away everything they love in life. Prayers From Maria was built out of love and compassion for these children and their families and the dire need for research. With very little funds available for research, it matters where funding goes. It is of the utmost importance that our funding supports the most promising research being conducted on gliomas -- wherever that may be. The foundation’s Medical Board consists of top doctors and researchers from around the world. Funding is awarded based on their professional expertise, experience, and evaluation of grant applications received. Thank you for helping us to advance our important mission.

During Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, we are reminded to take pause and remember our mission🌻

That's why we are turning September Gold!

Each Tuesday this month we are highlighting a special story, part of the foundation, and our mission to get the community involved.

Help us reach our goal and contribute to our Annual Campaign that funds a research grant in honor of a child on our Memorial Wall to serve as a way to remember and honor their legacy. Make a donation here https://onecau.se/_nfnzm1

Kicking off Childhood Cancer Awareness Month with a pop-up at Malley's Chocolates in Brook Park! Maria's Chocolate Bar will be available for purchase all month long, helping to spread awareness during this critical month🌻🍫

September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, and in recognition we’ve partnered with Prayers From Maria Foundation to make Maria’s Chocolate Bar available at all Malley’s locations.

Each bar is packed with dried cranberries and salted sunflower seeds (of course!) all covered in rich milk chocolate. A portion of proceeds from each bar sold will go to Prayers From Maria. The bars will also be available at the organization’s Field of Hope and Rocky River gift shop.

We’re kicking off the month at our Brook Park headquarters by hosting the Prayers From Maria team. Stop by from open until 11 a.m. to browse their merchandise table.

Plus, the first 10 guests to purchase a Maria’s Chocolate Bar in Brook Park on Sept. 1 (tomorrow!) will also receive a complimentary crocheted sunflower 🌻

Meet derekhess on 9/5 from 1 - 3 PM at Maria’s Field of Hope in Avon. Derek is a world-renowned illustrator featured in The Louvre, The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, and The Cleveland Museum of Natural History.

Derek has defined four decades of rock music through distinctive concert posters and album art. His work is well-known for using a technique called “Forced Perspective,” which is also the title of a five-time, award-winning documentary film about his life.

Beyond his historical rock concert posters, Derek’s originals and prints, including several new sunflower drawings, will be available for purchase, providing a unique lens into with the striking beauty of the natural world.

Bring your own sketchbooks while you walk and draw the blooming sunflowers, and receive drawing tips from the artist himself!
