The bone marrow drive for Aksel (http://www.saveaksel.com ) was a rainy one but thanks to some very nice customers of Frankie’s Pizza we registered 12 new people to the National Bone Marrow Registry. This counts as a success in my book.
A big Thank you to Frankie’s Pizza for allowing us to use your space and supporting this worthy cause.
Today we recieved the news we’ve been waiting for. The IRS has approved our status as a 501 c (3) charity. This opens the door for our foundation to finally begin the work we set out to do. To help kids suffering through cancer in our little angel’s name.
Thank you all for remembering Nick. It was an emotional day for us as we remembered the children lost and launched balloons for them today. We saw too many balloons in the sky. Too many babies that didn’t go home to their mom’s and dad’s. We can all make a difference. Every little bit counts. Your continued support means the world to us and so many others.
Thank you all and God Bless you.
Today we delivered 150 toys to the Miami Children’s Hospital Foundation to be delivered to kids throughout the hospital on Christmas day. Thank you to the students of Nautilus Middle School and others who donated the unwrapped toys and made it possible.
Thank you to all who came out today for our first event in honor of Nick. The event was a resounding success. We were able to get 34 blood donations as well as 38 people joined their names into the national bone marrow registry. We also collected $850 in donations at the event. That makes is a little bit closer to our goal of buying and installing Nintendo Wii console in all the rooms of the Cancer Floor at Miami Childrens Hospital. Thank you all again and God Bless you all.
We had a great turn out for our first 5k as an orginization. Thank you all for coming out.
