Community Comes Together for Teen Fighting Cancer

A young friend in our midst has been thrust into a battle with cancer. His determination and spirit have inspired "WILL Power Challenge."

LEMONT, IL — “The WILL Power Challenge” will be held on Sunday May 22 from 1 to 4 p.m. at Lemont High School. This is an epic event inspired by a young friend who was thrust into a battle with cancer just over a month ago. We hope to create an event to offer emotional and financial support to this young man, and his family and to have him be as inspired by out outpouring of love and gathering as he has inspired us with his spirit and determination.
