We are thrilled to share exciting news: on July 7th, 2025, CBS Mornings featured the story of Atlas, a 10-year-old boy living with debilitating pancreatitis—and two remarkable brothers who donated their chess winnings to help him.
This national spotlight is a huge moment for our community. Millions of viewers were introduced to the urgent need for better treatments and cures, and to Mission: Cure’s work to make them a reality.
If you joined us at our June 2025 gala, you heard how Atlas is now participating in a promising study supported by Mission: Cure. Today’s segment helps elevate stories like his, and the growing impact of this movement.
