Dear Friend and Supporter of Team Jack, Schools and businesses are closing, and we are all having to adapt to a "new normal" due to the Covid-19 outbreak. However, during a time that is unprecedented in most of our lifetimes, with schedules and routines halted, there is one thing we know for sure that has not stopped. Kids are still getting diagnosed with brain cancer. On top of that, children with brain cancer are immunocompromised, making them one of the most at-risk groups affected by coronavirus. They still must travel for treatments and sometimes this is long-distance travel. For some of us, we are fortunate enough to alter our lives to adapt to this "new normal" but for kids with brain cancer, their lives can't stop, they must continue to fight, no matter the circumstances. And we must continue to fight for them, but we need your help. There are many ways you can continue to help Team Jack and kids with brain cancer during these difficult times.

First, thank you... Thank you for doing your part in social distancing which protects the patient population we work so hard to help. We’ve all be asked to self-quarantine to help flatten the curve of COVID-19 and the large majority seems to be doing this. We are grateful for the conscious effort made by many to help slow the spread of this virus.

Team Jack is doing their part.... We felt it was necessary to postpone the 4 th Annual Team Jack Trifecta in Plano, TX that was scheduled for March 21, 2020. While abiding by current social distancing restrictions and taking extra precautions to keep us and our families safe, we are doing our best to continue normal operations. We will monitor our upcoming events and be sure we are doing our part.

While we understand the difficult times our supporters, donors, friends and family are going through, you can still make an impact on child brain cancer.

How to Help from Home Throughout the year, we have many individuals who host fundraisers to help us raise money for our cause.

Share & Communicate During this unusual time, we are putting extra focus on raising awareness and thanking our donors. An interruption in our normal activities has allowed us to take a moment to realize just how fantastic our support base is. We want to know what motivates you to support Team Jack and kids fighting brain cancer. Send us a Facebook message, an email or give us a call , we want to hear from you!

While we know it is important to make drastic changes to our lives right now, we also know that it is important to continue to fight for kids who are being diagnosed with brain cancer every day. That won't stop and neither will we. In addition to that, researchers are continuing to forge ahead in discovering new treatments for these kids, so we must continue to support them, but we cannot do it without you. Thank you for your support and for helping us make childhood brain cancer a priority. Lastly, to make you smile and leave with a positive note, here is a special note from our friend and brain tumor fighter, Mackenzie...
