Today, our friends at Parkway Schools spent time learning about Nora’s life and legacy, along with the important work foundations like ours are doing to raise awareness for DIPG and fund critical cancer research. 

We had a very SPARKLY day yesterday The University of Kansas Cancer Center. We (and when I write “we” I mean all of YOU … Nora’s “fans”) made our 1st major contribution to DMG/DIPG research.

What an incredible morning! The Sparkle to the Bridge 5K brought runners, walkers, families and friends together for a fun, energizing kickoff to November. The course was beautiful, the energy was high, and the smiles at the finish line said it all — this community showed up big.

May is Brain Tumor Awareness Month, symbolized by gray to honor the strength and hope of children fighting brain tumors like DIPG. As May ends, we continue raising awareness, sharing stories, and supporting families, inspired by Nora’s courage and kindness.

Huge thanks to everyone who joined us at Betty’s Books to honor sweet Nora. Your support of Sparkle of Love, Unicorn Sparkle seasoning, and Nora’s popcorn helps fuel the fight against childhood cancer through her Sparkle of Love Project.
