Our Impact

Discovering a cure for glioblastoma continues to be a long journey, but thanks to your generosity we have funding projects that are focused on improve the quality and duration of those diagnosed and, one day, will find a cure for this terrible disease.

To ensure Dunn With Cancer is making the largest impact, 100% of the $1.6 Million raised through to the Dunn With Cancer Research Fund goes towards glioblastoma research.

The DUNN with Cancer Research Fund

The DUNN with Cancer mission is a simple one: We want to live in a world where glioblastoma is treatable and, eventually, curable.

Thanks to our partners at the Brain Tumour Foundation of Canada, 100% of the donations to the DUNN With Cancer Research Fund will go towards glioblastoma research so that one day we will achieve our goal.

So far, together we have raised over $1,600,000 for brain cancer research, which has already been used to sponsor numerous research grants and fellowships.
