Help Support Ethan's Battle Against DMG Brain Cancer

Donation protected
Hi everyone. Our dear friend, Ethan White and his family, could use support from the
community right now. Ethan is 20 years old and lives in Ann Arbor, Michigan. On March
16th, he was diagnosed with a Diffuse Midline Glioma (DMG) Brain Tumor.

DMG is an aggressive childhood cancer that forms in different areas within the brain. It is extremely rare, inoperable, and difficult to treat. Ethan has completed radiation therapy and will soon begin either targeted
treatment or therapy within an experimental clinical trial.

Ethan is a snare drum player on the drum line of the Michigan marching band and hockey band, a psychology and pre med major, and a writer for his school paper -The Michigan Daily. To meet him is to feel his warmth and humor, positivity and kindness. He has enjoyed spending several summers working as a camp counselor and working with children with special needs. He is also an avid sports fan.

This has been an incredibly tough time for Ethan’s family. With this diagnosis comes many expenses including treatments not covered by insurance, travel to various cities for clinical trial evaluation, and other unanticipated costs. Our goal is to raise funds to help with the expenses during this difficult time and ease any financial burden, so his family can focus on supporting Ethan and spending quality time together.

We would appreciate any donation you are able to make, and thank you for your continued
strength and support!
