More about Geo Foundation and our cause:
The Geo Foundation honors George "Geo" Batikha and the many youth and young adults who have been diagnosed with cancer. All proceeds will go towards our two programs:
* Community Fund: Scholarships awarded to promising youth who champion our cause
* Family Assistance Fund: Direct grants provided to families who have a child going through cancer. Any funds not donated by the end of the year are donated to a charity focused on supporting families impacted by youth cancer. Currently that non profit is St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.
