Brain Aneurysm Foundation

We're fundraising for the Brain Aneurysm Foundation! 

On May 19, 2025, I experienced a ruptured brain aneurysm that required immediate brain surgery. By the grace of God and the outstanding care of the UPMC neurosurgery team, I am able to enjoy life today—including participating in last year's walk to raise awareness and support survivors and their families.  We are walking and raising funds again this year!

I welcome you to join me and our team again this year for the walk on Saturday, August 15.  If you are unable to join us on that day, your donation in support of the cause can be made directly to the team - BEAT THE BURST

THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION!!

OUR MISSION: To promote early detection of brain aneurysms by providing knowledge and raising awareness of the signs, symptoms and risk factors. Work with the medical communities to provide support networks for patients and families, as well as to further research that will improve patient outcomes and save lives.

Through your support, the Brain Aneurysm Foundation will be able to continue to provide support and educational materials and information to brain aneurysm patients, their families, and the medical community and to promote critical awareness of brain aneurysms which will lead to earlier detection. The Brain Aneurysm Foundation is funding essential research that will promote a better understanding of why this condition happens and identify those at risk before an aneurysm rupture occurs. 

Thank you for making a difference with your support!
