THANK YOU to all of our friends, family, supporters, donors and volunteers!

 

2009 was our best year yet and with 95 cents of every dollar going directly to the cause, we are proud of the tight ship we run.  Since our founding on April 10, 2007 each and every one of you has helped us raise almost $350,000!  This has allowed us to grant the wishes of or financially assist the families of well over 80 children battling leukemia, expand services to also include children battling lymphoma, provide 11 teen survivors of all forms of cancer with a once in a lifetime awesome outdoor adventure camp, supply the hospitals and Ronald McDonald House with hundreds of Wii, PS2, PS3, XBOX 360 games and consoles, DVD movies, arts, crafts, games and supplies, support United Airlines’ employees and their Operation North Pole Program, invest in the futures of 4 young college-bound men, assist the local Little League and players all the while putting $100,000 in the bank to cover the cost of outfitting the new activity room on the Oncology Floor at the new Children's Memorial Hospital slated to open in 2012 with furniture, board games, arcade-style games, pinball, hockey, foosball, electronics, TV’s, video, board games, arts and crafts.  

This will be no ordinary activity room – it will be “THE” activity room to beat all activity rooms.  One designed with the help and assistance of pediatric cancer fighters from all age groups that will make those that are receiving inpatient treatment want to come out of their rooms and interact with their peers playing games, competing in tournaments, doing crafts or just hanging out in a fun, friendly environment that will be constantly updated so that it remains “cool to hang in” for years.
