You can’t end cancer alone
Pediatric cancer research is extremely underfunded, and impacted families are often left without the resources they need. You want to help, but you face an uphill battle doing it alone. Making a meaningful impact in the fight against cancer should be simple.
Let's end childhood cancer

Support our heroes
Your participation will bring new awareness, more funding, and greater impact surrounding childhood cancer research.
We've walked this road, too.
It’s discouraging when you want to make a tangible impact but don’t know where to start. We started the East Texas Gold Run to give you an easy way to serve families who are suffering. All of the proceeds go toward raising more awareness in our community and funding local research.
Gold Network of East Texas is:
- Founded by 3 cancer moms
- 100% volunteer-driven
- A 501(c)3 nonprofit
