Welcome to Elizabeth’s Hope:
Dedicated to finding cures for inoperable brain tumors in children and adolescents

Elizabeth Minter lost her battle with gliomatosis cerebri on May 30, 2012, leaving behind family, friends, and a community that loved her beyond words and would have done anything to spare her. Her legacy, Elizabeth's Hope, was founded on her determination to find new treatment options for rare and inoperable brain tumors like the one that took her life.

The Registry
Elizabeth’s Hope is founding a national registry to encourage inter-institutional collaboration; aggregate samples of these rare and inoperable tumors across the United States, accelerating the development of clinical trials; and offer special hope for those patients whose tumors are so rare that minimal resources are directed towards elucidating their cause and treatment.
