American Collectors Insurance is a strong supporter of the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation®. Last year we raised more than $37,000 for the annual Philadelphia Ride for Kids®.
The national Ride for Kids program and the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation promote childhood brain tumor research. Pediatric brain tumors are the deadliest from of childhood cancer. However, thanks to research funded by the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation, progress is being made. We are greatly encouraged by the work being done and remain committed to supporting the community of Neuro-oncologists, Neurosurgeons and Research Scientists around the world who are on the front lines doing this much needed work.
This year’s annual Ride for Kids® returns to Philadelphia on September 19th
When you support Ride for Kids®, you’ll be helping the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation® fund medical research and family support. And most of all, you’ll be giving kids with brain tumors a fighting chance!
