About FOREVER KIDS FOUNDATION:

Forever Kids Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-for-profit charity dedicated to fighting for kids who are fighting for life. The foundation was started by 3 mothers who were disturbed by the severe underfunding of pediatric cancer research. We believe every disease has a cure and by working together, we can raise funds to further critical research. Every dollar is a dollar closer to a cure.

About MAKE YOUR MARK:

The Mark Staehely Pediatric Cancer Foundation is 501(c)(3) non-profit foundation that strives to promote the vision and ideal of Mark Staehely, and to carry on his legacy of love, compassion, and service. In 2000, Mark was diagnosed with stage 4 neuroblastoma, a rare pediatric cancer. Over the next six years he endured countless treatments, but spent every day making the most of the time he had, with his positive attitude being the driving force in his survival. Mark taught all those around him that even in the most difficult of circumstances, you can find time to care for others. He showed us that it’s not the length of time we are here that matters, but what we do with the time we have.
