Goal
Small children and young adults who are stricken with brain cancer often have difficulties with sound, reading, and strenuous activities. Building block kits are quiet fun that can help strengthen their thinking skills.
These funds help to support medical trial programs at hospitals and patients with new drugs that may extend their lives. The costs for a typical trial program start between $13,000-$25,000 per patient. Costs increase greatly after that if the hospital needs to purchase the drug that is on trial.
Your donation will purchase a kit and help fund these trials. You will be directly helping to extend or save a young person's life while giving them something fun to do as they recover from brain surgery, rest from radiation, chemo and other treatments.
First patient to receive a kit !

3-year-old Aria lives in the UK and loves her new kit!
First Kit - Built by Caitlin Boyle,

Chris also produces a podcast about brain cancer topics He has been Caitlin Boyle's mentor through American Brain Tumor Association. ABTA will match a patient with a mentor with a similar diagnosis to help lend support.
Dr. Carl Koschmann is happy to receive more kits from Anjalie, who collected kits for others after receiving hers from the Build a Care program. Anjalie and Caitlin were patients who bonded and helped support each other.Your donation will help them continue to help others!

Such a great way to honor Caitlin’s memory. When you are fighting for your life it is so nice to receive gifts especially a Lego kit. Raegan loved Legos and I loved it even more putting them together with her. Thank you for honoring our sweet girl 💜
