We are incredibly honored and grateful to share that Sideline Cancer has been featured in an exclusive article on People Magazine Online (People.com) — a truly monumental accomplishment for our foundation and a powerful moment in sharing Greg Griffith’s story with the world.
We extend our deepest THANK YOU to People Magazine Online for publishing Greg Griffith’s incredible journey and highlighting how his legacy of love continues to live on — 15 years after his diagnosis of pancreatic cancer in February 2010 — through students, communities, and the undeniable power of sports.
This beautiful and inspiring article captures the heart of Sideline Cancer and the #ICAN spirit. It shares how Greg’s love lives on through unforgettable Godwinks, and through the strength found in faith, hope, and community. From the Sideline Cancer Patient Assistance Program to the Sideline Cancer TBT Basketball Team, Greg’s story continues to inspire and uplift so many.
Founded in 2021, the Sideline Cancer Patient Assistance Program empowers students to make a real difference. Through fundraising efforts, merchandise sales, and donations, students rally together to support a classmate, educator, or community member facing the overwhelming financial hardships that often accompany a cancer diagnosis. At the very same time, they raise awareness by proudly wearing purple for pancreatic cancer, spreading hope far beyond the sidelines.
From the bottom of our purple hearts, Greg, Cathy, and their sons send a heartfelt thank you to everyone who has shown love, support, prayers, and belief along the way. Your incredible hearts and unwavering faith continue to remind us why we Believe Always.
We truly know and believe that one day God will cure all cancer. Until that day, we will continue to stand together — inspired by Greg’s legacy — making a difference one community, one student, and one story at a time.
We invite you to read this incredible article with a smile on your face and warmth in your heart, knowing that your love and prayers are making a difference for pancreatic cancer awareness and for all cancer patients.
