World Brain Tumor Day personalized cause

World Brain Tumor Day

Every year, World Brain Tumor Day is celebrated on June 8 to promote global awareness about brain tumors. This awareness day was introduced by the German Brain Tumor Association and has progressively become a global campaign. World Brain Tumor Day is observed in order to educate the population about brain tumors. Further, it’s to encourage early detection and diagnosis.

In addition, World Brain Tumor Day offers support for patients and endorses increased funding. Funding, furthermore, leads to research for enhanced treatment possibilities.

The awareness color for World Brain Tumor Day is gray. Gray represents brain tumor awareness.

How do I Contribute to this Global Cause?

If you want to extend your support, you can:

  • Wear a grey ribbon, it signifies brain tumor awareness.
  • Extend financial help to a brain tumor research organization.
  • Talk to your family and friends about brain tumors.
  • Volunteer in a brain tumor support group.

Lastly, apart from these macro-level support activities, if you personally know someone suffering from a brain tumor, show personal support. If physical or financial help is not needed/possible, moral support, even virtually, goes a long way! As a reminder, keep checking on your loved ones to let them know you care.
