As you gather with loved ones for the holidays, please make room in your heart for people facing cancer. This can be a difficult time of year for them and their families.

That’s why I’m asking you to make a special holiday gift to The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center today. Your support this holiday season will bring hope to another family — like Sabrina’s.

Sabrina was 16 when she was diagnosed with medulloblastoma, a form of brain cancer. “The first thing I wanted to do was fight,” she says.

MD Anderson gave Sabrina the lifesaving chemotherapy, proton therapy and surgery she needed. Generous supporters like you help us advance our research to save even more lives. Today, Sabrina has been cancer-free for six years, and she's finishing her senior year of college.

Sabrina got a second chance at life because of friends like you. She describes MD Anderson as “a blanket of relief over my family.” You can help more families have that same hope.

We urgently need your holiday gift today — so families can celebrate together for many holidays to come. You can even make your gift in honor of someone you love or in memory of someone you miss.

Please make your generous tax-deductible gift before Dec. ‌31 to help fuel the next big breakthrough and bring us closer to the day we #endcancer.

From our family to yours, thank you for your help in Making Cancer History^®.

Best holiday wishes,
