Helping to Build Hope
The Michael Quinlan Brain Tumor Foundation is dedicated to empowering those persons who have been affected by brain tumors. The Foundation provides support through educational, emotional, financial, and spiritual services.
A 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization based in Louisville, Kentucky, the Foundation was formed in April of 2001 in memory of Michael J. Quinlan. Michael passed away from an aggressive cancerous brain tumor called Glioblastoma or commonly referred to as a GBM. He lived for a short 10 1/2 months after diagnosis and was 45 years old when he passed. Receiving so much hope, encouragement and comfort from family, friends and the community at large the family wanted to return the goodwill. The Michael Quinlan Brain Tumor Foundation was created to give back and build hope for others on the same path.
For any brain tumor patient, the journey is not easy and not one to undertake alone. The Michael Quinlan Brain Tumor Foundation is composed of survivors, family members and friends who are willing to travel with you. We welcome you to our network of friends and family sharing hope and providing support.
