We’re fighting back against blood cancer by providing financial assistance to patients who
need it most.

Named after its late founder and WVU legend Brent P. Evans, the Live Like Brent Foundation (LLBF) has been raising critical funds for patients with blood cancer for over 10 years. Funds raised provide financial assistance that aids patients in covering pressing expenses during one of the most difficult times in their lives. Housing, utility, transportation, therapy, and many other expense are easily offset by the LLBF thanks to its partnership with the WVU Cancer Institute. Join us and make an impact on the blood cancer fight across West Virginia!

Thanks to WVU Cancer Institute allies 3 Guys Before the Game, who established the Connection 304 Fund, resources are channeled toward the Institute’s most urgent priorities at the director’s discretion. This includes advancing programs to enhance the quality of life for survivors and those in treatment, as well as driving efforts to achieve and maintain National Cancer Institute (NCI) designation.

Promoted by 3 Guys via special campaigns and benefits, the fund empowers the WVU Cancer Institute to address critical needs, expand innovative treatments, and strengthen its programs, ultimately elevating cancer care for the community.
