We are approaching the night of our SOLD-OUT 13th Annual CRF Celebrity Gala, an event celebrating hope and continuing to build financial support for DIPG research and families affected by DIPG. We will have celebrity guests, DIPG warriors, and special performances. We are so thankful to all those who purchased a ticket and are supporting the foundation and our efforts.

Our gala will be featuring special honorees such as Academy Award-nominated actor Chazz Palminteri and the Maestro Cares Foundation. In attendance will also be celebrity guests including hosts Kenan Thompson and Malik Yoba, along with A.J. Calloway, Darlene Rodriguez, and many more! This year will be our best gala yet. There are still ways for you to contribute even with seats sold out. You can donate today at cristianriverafoundation.org/donation/ to be part of the huge next step for research and family support that we’ll take at the gala this year.

Our medical partner Dr. Oren Becher is currently testing new inhibitors targeting a protein called LSD1, as well as testing nanoparticles to help cancer drugs get across the blood-brain-barrier. His lab is also testing new strategies to turn our immune system against the DIPG cancer cells. We are thankful for his dedication. Our continued funding will help bring Dr. Becher closer to a cure.
