Tony's Prostate Cancer Research Foundation

Prostate cancer is the most common major cancer in America, even though it affects only one sex. One man in six will get it — 9 out of 10 won’t need treatment, the rest will die. There’s no good way to tell them apart. Prostate cancer kills at a higher rate than breast cancer. Nearly 32 men out of 100,000 will die of prostate cancer; 27 women out of 100,000 die of breast cancer. Tony’s Prostate Cancer Research Foundation hosts Swing with the Legends of Golf in April and An Evening of Hope/ Wine Extravaganza in October of each year which is attended and financially supported by The Minx Family Foundation and members of Donato, Minx, Brown & Pool, P.C. Brook Minx is a member of the Board of Directors for Tony’s Prostate Cancer Research Foundation. The Foundation has donated more than $1,400,000 towards Dr. Timothy Thompson’s non-invasive prostate cancer research GLIPR1 project at M.D. Anderson.
