Fundraiser for Fibrolamellar Liver Cancer Research Held on Nov. 2

It’s that time!

This Sunday, Nov. 2, our family is hosting the Fundraiser for Fibrolamellar Liver Cancer Research from 1 to 4 p.m. at The Community Oven, 845 Lafayette Rd in Hampton.

Our family lost our 15-year-old nephew to this disease in June of this year. It is in Matthew’s memory that we are hosting this fundraiser. Fibrolamellar Hepatacellular Carcinoma (FHC for short) is a rare liver cancer that that targets teens and young adults. Approximately 200 people are diagnosed each year with this disease.

All of the money raised from our event goes to the Fibrolamellar Cancer Foundation which dedicates 100% of its funding to research for finding a cure to beat this rare and deadly cancer. Please check out their website at fibrofoundation.org/ to learn more about this great organization.
