Our Mission

The goals of Mira's Movement are to increase public awareness of the incidence and impact of childhood cancer, to provide resources and support for families facing a pediatric cancer diagnosis, and to broaden support for increased federal funding of pediatric cancer and brain tumor research.

Mira's Story

Mira's Movement was launched in honor and memory of our daughter, Mira Brouwer, who died April 26, 2008, at the age of 4, from unforeseen complications of treatment to prevent the return of brain cancer. (Read more...)

 

If you'd like to receive e-mails from Mira's Movement, please e-mail jointhefight@mirasmovement.org and give us your name, address, phone number (if you like), and e-mail address.

If you are a family member of a child with cancer, please let us know your relationship to that child and with what type of cancer they were diagnosed.

Thank you for joining the fight!
