The Dr. Marnie Rose Foundation, based in Houston, TX, is a fully tax-exempt public charity dedicated to eradicating brain cancer through research, advocacy, and awareness. Since its establishment in 2003, the foundation has provided significant funding for brain cancer research at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center and UTHealth Houston, as well as pediatric initiatives at Children's Memorial Hermann Hospital. With a mission to improve the lives of patients and caregivers, the foundation supports new drug development and personalized medicine, aiming to tailor treatments to each patient's genetic makeup and expedite the delivery of life-saving drugs from the lab to the patient. The foundation's flagship event, the Run for the Rose, is a highly anticipated annual race that supports brain cancer research and pediatric initiatives. Held at the University of Houston, the race commemorates brain tumor survivors and honors loved ones lost to this devastating disease. Participants can choose from a 5K or Family 1K, with timed 5K participants eligible for awards. The foundation's unwavering support from donors has enabled them to donate an impressive $7 million to date, making a significant impact in the fight against brain cancer and pediatric health issues.
