Nicknamed “Little Dude,” Max was a vibrant little boy who loved sushi, Legos, and Star Wars. Two days before Halloween, during his first year of school he was diagnosed with one of the rarest and deadliest forms of cancer - Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG). Nine months later, on July 4th, Max was gone.
100-150 children are diagnosed each year with DIPG. Less than 10% of these kids will live past 18 months from diagnosis. Your purchase today will help us find a cure. 40% of all sales go to the Max Channing Lacewell Foundation. Our mission is to support meaningful research in pursuit of a cure for DIPG.
