We’re Racing Towards Results

 

Two Foundations. One Common Goal.

Cancer has touched nearly all of us. In most insidious form, it touches children.

As long-time leaders of our own charities – Charles Tillman (The Charles Tillman Cornerstone Foundation) and Jacob Beckley (The Beckley Foundation) – we recognize the complexity and enormity of fighting back against these illnesses.

It’s what has brought us together to row 65 miles, non-stop, across Lake Michigan in early September to benefit Row4Kids.

Our hope is to support families and children affected by childhood cancer by generating awareness, funding for research and spurring renewed vigor to fight back against the disease.

Row4Kids will be an exciting event you will not want to miss! Check back often for updated event details or click here now to donate.

Tillman’s Cornerstone Foundations focuses on the devastating effects childhood illness wreaks on families while the Beckley Foundation supports investigation and research into finding cures, specifically for neuroblastoma.
