Help kids feel more joy and less alone

This holiday season, you can help a kid feel like a kid again with a donation to the Foundation’s BrainWAVE Program.

Thank you for considering a donation to the Brain Tumour Foundation of Canada. Your generosity will make a meaningful difference to people across Canada.


The Program helps children affected by brain tumours and their families to attend specially organized events together, such as professional sports games, an amusement park or a zoo; or play games at an arcade or bowling alley.

These events are about fun, yes – but they offer comfort and joy to lessen the loneliness that children feel on their brain tumour journey.

Thank you for putting a smile on the face of a child today.

What your gift will do!

Your donation will make a direct and meaningful impact on children and families affected by a brain tumour. Here are a few examples of how your gift can help.

  • $50 can print 10 copies of “Talk to your child about a brain tumour diagnosis,” a booklet for parents to discuss their diagnosis with their family.

  • $250 can purchase healthy snacks and beverages for children and families attending one BrainWAVE event.

  • $500 can cover the cost for five children and their families to attend a special BrainWAVE Event.

  • $1,000 can cover the cost of developing, printing and distributing dozens of copies of the Paediatric Handbook.
