Mission Moment

2025 Mission Paddle Raise: Pancreatic Cancer Research

Pancreatic cancer is the 3rd leading cause of cancer death in the US with a 5-year survival rate of only 8%.

In recognition of Kaye Monfort’s legacy and in hope for a future without pancreatic cancer, we are Branding a Cure. Kaye was an incredible leader and valuable member of our Cattle Baron’s family. Her legacy continues to inspire impact on the American Cancer Society’s mission work.

With pancreatic cancer cases and deaths steadily rising over the last several decades, there’s an urgent need for more research to better understand the disease, develop earlier detection methods, and find more effective treatments.

This year, your Paddle Raise donation will support a pancreatic cancer research grant, and is 100% tax deductible. 

Help us raise a minimum of $500,000 to name a pancreatic cancer research grant in honor of Kaye Monfort- supporting a search for a cure and a future free from pancreatic cancer.

More than 80% of our revenue is invested in delivering our mission
