The Butterfly Foundation, also known as The Brittany Pasqual Pediatric Oncology Research Foundation, was created in 2002 in memory of 5-year-old Brittany Pasqual who succumbed to the same cancer as Alex Scott, neuroblastoma. In an effort to eliminate pediatric cancers, The Butterfly Foundation is dedicated to investigating and discovering the causes of pediatric cancer; developing effective strategies to prevent pediatric cancer; and educating and empowering those who are dealing with pediatric cancer through advocacy programs.
