What began as an impromptu fundraising group comprised of Brian Piccolo’s friends, family members and NFL teammates is now a thriving nonprofit organization that has raised more than $8 million for cancer research since it kicked off in 1970. The Brian Piccolo Cancer Research Fund generously supports cancer research at Rush University Medical Center in Chicago, with a focus on women's cancers such as breast and ovarian cancer.
Important sources of funding include the Gavers Community Cancer Foundation, the Chicago Bears through NFL Charities program, memorial gifts and donations from individuals and organizations across the country. Please consider supporting us as we continue the battle against cancer by making a donation via our secure online giving form, or by contacting Sarah Finnegan, Fund Coordinator, at 1700 W. Van Buren Ave., Suite 250, Chicago, IL 60612. (312) 563-4953.
