The Brave Like McKenna Foundation was created in honor of our daughter, McKenna Royer, who lost her battle to DMG February 26, 2024. McKenna courageously and bravely battled DMG, a rare and aggressive form of pediatric brain cancer. She marched through treatments and physical setbacks with such determination.

On behalf of the Brave Like McKenna Foundation, we are thrilled to announce our first Brave Like McKenna Golf Tournament, scheduled to take place on May 16th at Dubs Dread Golf Club. This inaugural event aims to unite our community in the support of children battling cancer and their families.

Pediatric cancer is the leading cause of death by disease among children. Only 4% of government funding is allocated towards pediatric cancer. At Brave Like McKenna, we are dedicated to supporting children and families by providing emotional and financial support, as well as pooling our funds with other foundations to help support innovative treatment programs and fund cutting-edge research. By attending this event, you are playing a critical role in driving these efforts forward.
