C4C Writes Huge Check to University of Washington!

Carve for Cancer Inc. is a Philadelphia based charity founded by East Falls native Brent P. Evans. Recently, Carve for Cancer wrote a check for $10,000 to University of Washington Medical Advancement. The money will benefit research being conducted by Dr. Andrei Shustov to combat Non-Hogkins Lymphoma.

Evans journey with Carve for Cancer Inc. began while being treated at Jefferson Hospital for Stage-4 Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma. It was there Brent met fellow Philadelphian and blood cancer survivor, Earl Stoudt. Brent told Earl about his plans of beating cancer and starting a snowboarding event to raise money for blood cancer research.

In 2012, Brents had won his battle against cancer and his vision became a reality at Montage Mountain, in Scranton Pennsylvania. By 2016 Carve for Cancer incorporated as a 501.c.3 (tax exempt) non-profit and found its home at Jack Frost / Big Boulder. Unfortunately, earlier this year, Brent’s cancer came back and he is currently undergoing treatment in NYC. While Brent fights on, so does Carve for Cancer. Today it is one of the premier ski and snowboard festivals in the Poconos with their 5th annual event scheduled for February 4th 2017.

“It’s honestly astounding to see this dream come true” says Brent. “We started as a small grass roots snowboarding fundraiser, and now we have grown into a legit non-profit, with multiple events, raising thousands of dollars for crucial research.”

"KICK" for Cancer 2016 is Coming!

The third annual “Kick for Cancer” longboarding race event is being held on Sunday, September 11th on a closed section of Martin Luther King Drive in Philadelphia

The race is being produced by the non-profit organization Carve for Cancer Inc.. In 2012, Carve for Cancer Inc. was founded by Philadelphia native Brent P. Evans of East Falls. While being treated for Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma at Jefferson university, Brent met fellow outdoor sports enthusiast, Earl Stout, also a blood cancer survivor. Earl and Brent went on to found Carve for Cancer Inc. with the mission of “Shredding blood cancer through extreme sports events and fundraising.”   

“We are really stoked to get Philadelphia longboarders together again for a great cause.” Says Earl. “Kick 4 Cancer is my way of giving back and saying thank you for the support I had during my battle against cancer.”

Earl stressed the importance of this year’s event in particular. “This year’s event is even more important as our founder Brent Evans is currently battling his second round of cancer. It’s just another reminder how important the work is that we are doing.”

Incredible Turnout at Carve for Cancer 2016

Today we look back at the amazing day we had at Big Boulder for Carve for Cancer 2016! It was a truly remarkable event. Thousands showed up to ski, ride, and help Carve raise over $10,000 for blood cancer research! 

"We were overwhelmed by the sheer number of people that showed up on the mountain to be a part of Carve 2016" recalls Josh Frank, Treasurer and Marketing Director for Carve for Cancer Inc.  "The lodge was overflowing with people enjoying music, engaging with vendors, and supporting our fight agains blood cancers. A big thanks goes out to everyone that showed up, donated and especially to our sponsors who none of this is possible without. It was really just an amazing day."

The Carve team says that while they are celebrating the success of 2016, it is now time to move forward, switch gears and focus on 2017.
