“Tcgives was born in memory of kathleen k. Schoemaker who lost her battle to pancreatic cancer in 2006. Tcgives will raise money to promote progress in the diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic cancer in honor of kathleen. Every year, more than 62,000 americans are diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, the third-leading cause of cancer death in the country. Through fundraising efforts tcgives, in partnership with jefferson's sidney kimmel cancer center, want to give the gift of hope to patients and families met with a diagnosis of pancreatic cancer.”

“We are and continue to be overwhelmed by dr. Yeo's teams dedication to their patients, their focus on improving their patients quality of life, and their commitment to finding a cure to pancreatic cancer. Tcg gives has partnered with dr. Yeo's team and jefferson's sidney kimmel cancer center that we may advance treatment options for those diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. This initiative seeks to identify biomarkers in early stage tumors, which can in turn inform tumor-specific treatment and potentially predict drug repsonse and disease recurrence. Biomarker testing is not covered under insurance and relies completely on donations from organizations like tcg gives. This research will advance pancreatic cancer treatment and improve survival rates, utlimately providing the biggest gift to those faced with pancreatic cancer: hope. Jefferson has the top pancreatic surgical and research team in the country, led by dr. Charles yeo. Tcg gives proceeds will go directly to dr. Yeo's molecular profiling initiative. One of the goals of jeffersons' research is to profile each patient's tumor. As described by dr. Yeo. "by profiling each patient's tumor, we can better target their specific cancer. This is the direction of modern, personalized oncologic care, not to mention advances our research". There is limited funding from nih and the american cancer society and therefor jefferson's research team relies on philanthorpy to continue to create forward movement in treating this disease.”
