July is — a time to honor the parents who have lost a child to a brain tumor, and to remind them that their grief is seen, their love is remembered, and they are never alone.

When a child is lost to a brain tumor, the pain that follows is lifelong. So is PBTF's commitment to the families who carry it.

For 35 years, PBTF has walked alongside bereaved parents, caregivers, and siblings, offering peer-to-peer mentoring, emotional support, and spaces like Starry Night where families can memorialize their child and find community with others who understand.

None of this undoes the loss. But it means no parent has to carry it alone.
