Thanks to our supporters, your generosity allowed us to donate 100% of the proceeds to research organizations dedicated to finding a cure for DIPG. In December 2023, we contributed $50,000 to continue our partnership with DIPG/DMG Collaborative [https://www.dipgcollaborative.org/], joining over 20 foundational partners and supporting long-term DIPG/DMG research. In April 2024, we donated another $50,000 to the Children's Brain Tumor Project [https://www.childrensbraintumorproject.org/], which focuses on furthering research in the understanding of the development of DIPG and improving the outcome for children with brain tumors.



Please consider joining us again this year in honoring Lucas' strength. Your generosity makes a difference! Learn more about Love4Lucas [https://www.love4lucas.org/]and how to get involved.



The Love4Lucas Foundation is a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization created in honor of Lucas Harashima. On September 17, 2016, at the age of 5, Lucas was diagnosed with DIPG (Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma). DIPG is an aggressive brain tumor that affects children between the ages of 4 and 11 and interferes with all bodily functions. Lucas died on March 21, 2018, just a few months shy of his 7th birthday.



Your support helps us continue Lucas legacy. Thank you!
