A daughter’s love is turning into life-changing impact.

After losing her dad, Lawrence, to a rare cancer called paraganglioma, Alexia Greco is bringing her community together for “Lawrence’s Drive for a Cure” — a golf tournament and fundraiser supporting BC Cancer Foundation.

Rare cancers like this are often overlooked and underfunded. But thanks to donor support, researchers like Dr. Brandon Bernard are making real progress, improving how these cancers are found, tracked and treated.

Every dollar raised helps move this work forward and gives families more answers, more options and more hope.
