Every Day Matters. So Does Your Support.

LBF365 is the Lilabean Foundation's giving program supporting research for children with brain cancer every single day of the year.

Every day, 13 children in the U.S. are diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor. Behind each number is a child missing school, a parent facing impossible choices, and a family whose life has been turned upside down. LBF365 is your opportunity to stand with these families—not just today, but all year long. Your gift demonstrates your commitment to ensuring funds are available for critical research and creating a future where every child with brain cancer has a chance to grow up and thrive.

“Around 5,000 children this year will have their lives completely turned upside down by the words 'brain cancer.' We never thought in a million years that in 2023 our family and our sweet son would be included in that statistic, but we were. We are beyond lucky to be able to have our son still with us today, but we would be remiss to say that brain cancer doesn’t stay with us every single day of the year. We are in this fight 365 days a year, and we will forever be. One day, we were not a brain cancer family, but the next, we were. Do not wait till someone you love is diagnosed to join this fight.”
— Cara Sarubin, Mom of LBF Hero, Cameron
