Program accomplishments

  • Pray for Gray Foundation was born from the vision of its founder, Julie Fletcher, to raise funds for research as well as for families dealing with the diagnosis of brain tumors. The foundation had three fundraising events in 2024. The first event was a gala in which tickets are sold for an event that includes a meal, silent and live auction items, as well as other donation opportunities. The second event was a golf tournament in which funds were raised by players in the event, along with sponsors of holes throughout the event. The third event was a 5k run/walk. Pray for Gray aspires to give hope, to raise awareness, and to help with the financial needs of families dealing with brain tumor disease.
