Every Day Matters

Dear Friend,

Even though he taught us to celebrate life instead of death, we mourn the passing of Dr. Randy Pausch and extend our deepest sympathies to his family. Dr. Pausch chose to make every day matter by fighting against pancreatic cancer. He joined us to tell Congress of the need for more research, better treatments and real hope for pancreatic cancer patients. You can watch his compelling testimony below.

Prior to his passing, a letter from Dr. Pausch was posted on this site reinforcing his belief that every day matters. We know he wouldn't have wanted us to remove it. He would have wanted you to read it and get involved. Please click to read

To honor his legacy, Dr. Pausch and his family have requested that donations be made to our organization as well as to the Carnegie Mellon Randy Pausch Memorial Fund to support Dr. Pausch’s Alice technology project.

We welcome your donations and urge your ongoing involvement. Together, we’ll make every day matter by advancing research, supporting patients, and advocating for a cure. Together, we’ll make every day matter and honor this remarkable man.

Sincerely,
randy pausch
