Cathy and Greg Griffith
The history of the Griffith Family Foundation is a tragic but inspiring chapter in the story of Greg and Cathy Griffith.
On November 17, 2016, we are joining with our global counterparts in recognizing World Pancreatic Cancer Day to help raise awareness for the catastrophic disease that is pancreatic cancer.
Cathy Griffith was recently awarded a local Jefferson Award because of The Griffith Family Foundation and Sideline Cancer’s efforts to raise awareness for pancreatic cancer and to raise funding for pancreatic cancer research.
The Greg & Cathy Griffith Family Foundation is teaming up with families from The Good Funeral Home, Alto-Reste Park, and the Altoona Curve Saturday, August 27th at 6:00 PM for “Fund a Cure to Sideline Pancreatic Cancer” Night!
The Griffith Family Foundation’s 7th Annual Sideline Pancreatic Cancer Dinner will be featuring two very special guest speakers. On Friday, July 29th, we will hear from Grace Vera Zetz (pictured on the right) and her daughter Josie (in the picture below).
Singer-songwriter, Erin Willett, will be attending our 7th Annual Sideline Pancreatic Cancer Dinner and will perform her hit song ‘Out of The Darkness’ as well as our Sideline Cancer theme song: Journey’s ‘Don’t Stop Believing’.”
During this years Pancreatic Cancer Action Network’s Advocacy Days, Sideline Cancer received some very public attention from two prominent pancreatic cancer advocates. Pamela Acosta Marquardt (left) and Grace Zetz (right) took a moment in their busy schedules to pose in front of our Nation’s Capital with a Sideline Cancer T-shirt to show their support for Sideline Cancer.
Several years ago, Jack Andraka became Sideline Cancer’s first official Ambassador. Jack is a 19-year-old Stanford student, who, at only 15, invented an inexpensive sensor that can be used as an early detection device for pancreatic and other cancers.
For the third summer in a row, the Sideline Cancer team is campaigning to play in The Basketball Tournament, or TBT, which is an open-application, 5-on-5 single-elimination, winner take-all basketball tournament.
