We are so grateful for the support of Brayden and his parents. Even the youngest philanthropists play an important role in Making Cancer History. #endcancer xitter.cf/ppisters/status/938580…
It was a pleasure to meet 6-year-old Brayden Rivera today. He visited me to donate money he raised for @MDAndersonNews, in support of cancer patients like his mom. He wants to help our doctors to #endcancer. Thank you for your generosity, Brayden.
