Misssion4maureen has touched my heart in many levels. Knowing the Fmaily of Maureen and how with her passing and their determination to keep her light shining has been extrordinary to me. The foudation has created a way for people who suffer with brain cancer and related cancers to have a way to receive help and also information, to help there situation. They go to great lengths to reach out to whomever is in need and I commend the foudation on all of their efforts to help others in need. They are truly a blessing.

No one can do everything, but everyone can do something. A catchy phrase, but how many people actually take it seriously? How many think, I'll leave it up to someone else? I don't have the time. It's a busy day at work today. I'm too busy once I get home. Or...I want to relax. I want to just do nothing. In reading the stories of patients on the Mission4Maureen website, I am always struck by how many of them were just living normal lives. Driving along...had a sinus infection...had a headache...got blurry vision. They went to the doctor or they brought their child to the doctor and heard the words "brain tumor." The sad truth is that by the time you hear those words, it is almost too late to be saved. But these patients fight and live and hope....that everyone will do something to help them and others like them. I can't always contribute as much as I'd like but I can support the good works of Mission4Maureen by telling its story.

How many families get caught up on their bills and get collectors off their backs. Some patients write about how Mission4Maureen helped them keep their home. Those are major accomplishments.

Help all it's patients sooner and could also help to fund research for better treatments.

I could have given more.
In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...
publicity and the down economy. People don't seem to have the same dollars to give as they once did, yet the patients still need the same (or more) help.

As a family friend I experienced first hand the heartache and turmoil that Maureen's family experienced during her illness and during these past several years sincer her passing. M4M has helped to turn this terrible tragedy into a hopeful opportunity for others. M4M has reached out to many and my favorite event is the "May Days" which honors Maureen in a special way as her greatest joy in life was her children and she was such an exceptional mother. Thanks for all of your great efforts to help others with brain cancer.

M4M receives numerous requests for assistance each year. The foundation attempts to assist those in greatest need, but at the same time tries to provide assistance to as many applicants as possible.

M4M could do even more if there would be more $$ donated. Unfortunately the economy has impacted nonprofit groups like M4M.

I have watched this charity grow from a small organization of family and friends to a thriving, growing charity that is now receiving grants to supplement their fund raising activities. They have helped patients all across the USA from Connecticut and Delaware to Florida, California and Washington. Even though the economy has slowed donations, Mission4Maureen never gives up. They work everyday to try to find ways to help all of its applicants.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
the "thank you notes" from patients helped in the Mission4Maureen newsletters and in the reviews written here by some of the patients. Their stories are truly inspiring.

I am happy to be a supporter and donor of Mission4Maureen. A horriffic tragedy for the families of Maureen Lowis which plunged all those who loved Maureen into a sea of darkness, has now resulted in hope and possibilities for other families battling this terrible disease. This organization brings financial help, emotional stability, and a level of comfort and compassion that can only be given by those who have already walked this road. I believe Mission4Maureen is destined to grow and bloom, so that other cancer patients can live and fight without any further worry.

I first learned about Mission4Maureen 2 years ago. At that time, I worked for a not for profit trade association. I knew first hand, how difficult it was to do fund raising, and to get people interested in a worthy and passionate cause. I was not only impressed, but touched with the gentle and kind way that the volunteers of Mission4Maureen handle their cause. Since then, I have kept in touch, kept informed and remain interested in the progress that this organization continues to make in order to impact the lives of those touched with this tragic and devistating form of cancer.
