"We need to focus on brain cancer and rare cancers because it's really giving a voice to the voiceless. No one focuses on rare cancers and those are the people we need to help" – Lance Kawaguchi

To discuss this monumental achievement, Kawaguchi was interviewed by Sky News Australia correspondent Holly Stearnes, where he shared insights into the trek's significance and its impact on global cancer research efforts. His endeavor underscores Cure Brain Cancer Foundation's role at the forefront of international collaborations dedicated to curing brain cancer.

Adding to the Foundation's list of significant milestones, Kawaguchi also rang the Nasdaq bell for the second time in 13 months this past December. This prestigious act serves as a powerful symbol of the Foundation's global reach and influence in the ongoing battle against cancer and rare diseases.

Founded in Australia, Cure Brain Cancer Foundation has become a leading force in brain cancer research funding, with over $30 million invested in clinical and preclinical studies across pediatric and adult brain cancers. Under Kawaguchi's leadership, the Foundation continues to unite the brain cancer community, bringing hope and driving progress toward curing this devastating disease.
