“Life is short and we do not have much time to gladden the hearts of those who walk the way with us. So be swift to love and make haste to be kind…”

Together, we Celebrate!

Thank you for walking and celebrating 14 Days of Maddy with Madelyn James. Today, we celebrate! 

Last year, we were home, as a family in Philadelphia, and that’s just what we did, celebrate. Our apartment was decorated with lights. Our hearts were joyful from being together. And, our minds were at peace to witness the smiles of Hannah and Maddy playing together. We didn’t know what the future would bring, but what we did know was how we felt in that moment: grateful. 

To honor this memory, today's donations will be matched up to $10,000 to help us meet our goal of raising $30,000 to support our first ever Madelyn James family!

Today, we celebrate Maddy and all of the lives touched by pediatric cancer. Our mission is to take the logistical stress out of caring for children with cancer so families can be together. So families can experience joy. So families can fill their days with memories of love and laughter. 

Thank you for making our mission possible!
