The Cure Starts Now's Tribute Funds

Julia Bitto's Tribute Page

Julia was a sweet, bright, beautiful and sassy 6 year old girl, who loved to dance and sing, and warmed the hearts of her family and friends. She got sick in August 2017, and her family was given the worst diagnosis imaginable--Julia had DIPG, an inoperable, incurable brain tumor.

Over the next 19 months, she powered through several rounds of radiation at Penn Medicine as a patient at CHOP and started a trial drug up at NYU, but sadly DIPG took her life in March of 2019.

The Cure Starts Now is vested in representing all children who have battled cancer. Thank you for choosing to donate to The Cure Starts Now Foundation in honor of Julia, and all of the children who have passed, and are currently battling cancer. 100% of this donation, after credit card processing fees, goes directly towards research to find the homerun cure for cancer starting with pediatric brain cancer research.

If you would like to make a donation by mail please send a check to:  The Cure Starts Now Foundation; 10280 Chester Road; Cincinnati, OH 45215 and put the child's name in the memo.

The family receives notification of all donations made to this tribute fund automatically.
