The Brian Morden Foundation, a local organization created in May 2003 to fight back against childhood cancer, is proud to announce the Brian Morden Foundation CARES Spotlight. Each month a local child with cancer will be in the spotlight.

The Brian Morden Foundation will provide information about that child as well as the type of childhood cancer with which they were diagnosed. Families may suggest an organization or individual researcher to whom they’d like the BMF to send a $1000 donation in honor of their child for the purpose of research or support to children with cancer and their families.

The first recipient will be Addison Zearfaus, daughter of Mark and Jessica Zearfaus. Addison was diagnosed with ALL in May 2016 at the age of 7. Her birthday is January 26th, so the Brian Morden Foundation plans to recognize her with the BMF CARES Spotlight this month. The Brian Morden Foundation will be donating $1000 to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society in her honor.

For more information or to donate to the Brian Morden Foundation, please contact Dawn Morden, president of the BMF at dbjmorden@brianmordenfoundation.org or 814-946-9369. Contributions may also be made at the Central Pennsylvania Community Foundation or on the BMF website at http://brianmordenfoundation.org/support.html.
