As we begin this New Year, our Foundation wishes to express its deepest appreciation to all of you for your constant and continued support.
Our Foundation would be powerless without your energy, creativity and deep commitment to help children with cancer. This web site publicly displays past and upcoming fundraising events. We know that your imagination has no limits so we invite you and your family/community to either join us at our Annual fund raisers or create your own event. We must eradicate this horrible disease.
We appreciate all of your efforts and we know that every dollar helps save a life. From the bottom of our hearts as well as the hearts of all the children and families we serve, we look forward to working with you and thanking you in 2009.
