Diem Brown:
First appeared on MTV's Freshmeat Challenge when she broke
the mold of what people would think a girl with Cancer would look
and act like! She returned from Australia to continue harder
treatments for Ovarian Cancer and had the all the assumed side
effects including fatigue, hair loss and a small bought with
Depression. After realizing every cloud must have a sliver lining
she created LIVE for the CHALLENGE the first and only medical Gift
Registry www.L4TC.com Which has been featured
on MTV, CBS, Fox News and in Glamour and Us Weekly
magazines. Diem then return to do her second Challenge The Duel
stronger and braver than ever!
Diem came up with her idea during 12 hour chemotherapy
treatments. As she played on her computer and received email after
email from normal 24 year old girl friends from college sending
their wedding and babies registry. She thought "Hey we celebrate the
birth of a life with a baby registry, the joining of two lives with
a wedding registry why not a registry for the FIGHT for a life;
Medical Gift Registry".
She embarked on the task of creating a company from nothing,
she was $60,000 in debt from medical bills and had never been
that intune with the Internet. However she knew in her heart
that THIS was her Silver lining! She networked and pitched to anyone
who would listen to her and after a lot of hard work and
determination she now has gotten the recognition from Fortune 500
companies! Her next big event is this Jan 23rd at Sundance
where her documentary will be showing. The proceeds from the event
go straight to those patients on the L4TC.com site that cannot
afford treatment or cannot pay their medical and utility bills due
to their illness.
Diem is a great and motivational speaker. Her experience
lends her a perfect resource to draw upon on so many topics:.
MTV, Cancer, Depression. starting a web based business and
charity and hosting fundraising events!
She also can infuse your school with the charity challenge
program -- which allows different groups in your college to organize
and raise money for the chairty/cause closest to their own
hearts!
