Nerf Cancer Hearts for Heroes

A Valentine's Month Fundraising Event

All February long
2025

Make a difference and fund critical research while you livestream.
Together we can nerf cancer for good. 

This Valentine's Day, take the challenge to fundraise for cancer research and put a smile on a cancer patient's face at the same time!

1. Pick a day (or a few days, or the whole week!) to fundraise in the month of February.

2. Set one of your donation incentives to have the donor's name and (family appropriate and uplifting) message written on a valentine.

3. At the end of the campaign, we will compile EVERY donor name and message to hand write them on a valentine, and send ALL of them to a child battling brain cancer.

As always, 100% of your fundraised donations (after credit card fees) will go directly towards cancer research to help kids battling brain cancer. All of our grants fund specific research while making our researchers accountable to results and innovation.

The Cure Starts Now believes, as the experts do, that to cure cancer you have to focus on:

  • Cancers that are immune to treatment
  • Cancers that also affect children
  • Cancers with the highest death rate

We are truly a grass-roots effort and your participation helps further our mission of finding the Homerun Cure™ for all cancers. Since 2007, The Cure Starts Now has funded over $34 million in pediatric brain cancer research and support funding to date, in partnership with the DIPG / DMG Collaborative. This includes 150+ grants at over 100 hospitals in 17 countries.

100% of your fundraised donations (after credit card fees) will go directly towards cancer research to help kids battling brain cancer. All of our grants fund specific research while making our researchers accountable to results and innovation.
