The life science industry and the amazing people in it are always trying to do hard things—sometimes the seemingly impossible. Whether it's making a drug for a seemingly undruggable target, creating a lifesaving vaccine in record time, or unraveling the complex issue of poverty, we face every problem with grit.

 The 3rd annual Timmerman Traverse benefitting Life Science Cares will take an intrepid group of hikers 20+ miles with 8,000 feet of elevation gain across the Presidential Traverse in the White Mountains of New Hampshire over the course of three days. Each of the 20 leaders in the life science sector has committed to raise a minimum of $25,000 for Life Science Cares and collectively the team has set a goal to raise $1 million!

Proceeds from the Traverse support our partners and partnerships in the community, which focus on providing access to basic needs, access to education and access to opportunity.

 To date, the Life Science Cares network has distributed more than $10 million in grants and performed 30,000 volunteer hours to support human service organizations in Greater Boston, Philadelphia, New York, San Diego, and the Bay Area.

 As a 501(c)3 tax-exempt organization, your donation to Life Science Cares is tax-deductible within the guidelines of U.S. law. Life Science Cares Federal Tax ID #81-2435939. No goods or services were provided in exchange for gifts.

And our new fundraising goal is $1 million.
