Our Mission
The Waves of Gray – 5K Brain Cancer/Tumor Awareness Walk was created in memory of Fred K. Fenton II. Fred lost his battle with brain cancer (glioblastoma) in November 2016. When he was sick, we felt extremely helpless, as caregivers often do.
This walk is a way we can bring together the Jacksonville brain tumor community, bring awareness

This walk is a way we can bring together the Jacksonville brain tumor community, bring awareness for this horrible disease & raise funds for brain cancer/tumor research.
Fred lost his battle but our fight continues...
