The Presbyterian Hospital Invitational Criterium
Every year since 2004, the Brain Tumor Fund for the Carolinas has hosted the The Presbyterian Hospital Invitational Criterium (formerly known as the Bank of America Invitational Criterium), promoting community awareness of the BTFC in an effort to increase regional brain tumor patient access to the best treatment, technology, research, and support. All net proceeds from the event benefit BTFC.
