This year marks the 11th year for the Mark Linder Walk for the Mind.
The 1st Annual Walk for the Mind was held in 2003. Mark’s creation of the Walk
stemmed from his experience of feeling alone when he was diagnosed. His
mission was to create brain tumor awareness in the local community. Mark also
wanted to raise funds for brain tumor research. More than a decade later the
Mark Linder Walk for the mind has become instrumental in bringing individuals
together to create a network of support for one another. Many of our survivors
are now SHARING knowledge gained from experiences in dealing with their own
brain tumors.
For the first ten years of the Walk, well over $330,000
$33
was raised for brain
tumor research. At last year's Walk, we were excited to announce our newly
achieved status as a 501(c) (3) charitable organization. We also
al announced a
partnership with the University of Illinois College of Medicine. We are pleased to
continue this partnership another year. Net
et proceeds from the 2013 Walk will be
directed to the brain tumor research program being conducted in Central Illinois at
the University of Illinois College of Medicine in Peoria. We expect to see some of
the researchers again this year from the College of Medicine, Illinois Cancer Care,
and Illinois Neurological Associates.
We look forward
ard to another successful Walk and would be delighted with your
support. We encourage you to bring your family and friends to this great event.
Your continued support lends HOPE to survivors that one day a cure will be found.
Sharing Hope,
The 2013 Mark Linder Walk for the Mind Committee
