Sanger Foundation

Karen and Stephen attended the first ChadTough gala and have stayed involved ever since. “What ChadTough has accomplished in such a small amount of time is nothing short of amazing, and we are proud to be a Partner.” The Sanger Family Foundation grants ChadTough dollars to help cover administrative costs, which ensures more funds go directly to research.

It was pure happenstance when Tammi Carr became the Executive Director of Wayne and Shelly Jones’ foundation, The Jones Family Foundation, in 2009. Wayne and Shelly were looking for someone to head up their foundation when they met Tammi through her development position at Michigan Medicine.

“It worked out,” said Shelly Jones. “It was perfect.”

The Weiser Family

When University of Michigan Regent Ron Weiser heard that Chad Carr was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer, the news hit him hard. Even though he did not personally know the Carr family, the idea of a family bearing the news that their 4-year-old child was likely going to die — and there was nothing that could be done — was intolerable. He knew he had to do something, anything to help.

Zatkoff Family Legacy Fund

The Zatkoff family has been involved with Chadtough since it’s early days once they heard of Chad Carr. Through their Zatkoff Family Legacy Fund, the family has sponsored a variety of grants since 2020. “We wholeheartedly support the children and families battling DIPG and are proud to stand with Chadtough as we find a cure for this horrible disease.”
