Broach Foundation

Our Story

In August 2011, James Broach was diagnosed with an aggressive form of brain cancer, a grade IV astrocytoma, just ten months after a previous diagnosis of a grade II astrocytoma. Despite enduring countless surgeries, radiation, and experimental trials, James remained committed to making a difference in the fight against brain cancer. This dedication led to the establishment of the Broach Foundation for Brain Cancer Research, founded by James and his wife Jamie, to provide essential funding for research aimed at advancing the prevention, treatment, and cure for brain cancer. Although James lost his battle on August 26, 2013, his legacy continues through the Foundation's impactful work and the cutting-edge research it funds each year.

Impact

The Broach Foundation has funded over $6,500,000 in brain cancer research, significantly supporting the work of Dr. Frederick Lang and his team at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center. This funding has facilitated crucial preclinical advancements toward developing new treatments for brain tumors, particularly glioblastoma, a disease currently without a cure.

Why Donate?

Donations to the Broach Foundation support dedicated personnel who tirelessly work to develop and test innovative solutions for brain tumors. By contributing, supporters can help fund promising clinical trials that assess novel delivery methods for next-generation glioblastoma treatments, ultimately aiding in the fight against this devastating disease.
