We will be hosting a fundraiser for one of the family members of Cox Radio Long Island. This summer Danielle Heckman, one of the employees at WBLI’s son was diagnosed with Leukemia. Steven has been in remission for the past 2 weeks; however he is going to have to undergo intense Chemotherapy for the next three years. Steven has 2 sisters and the financial strain on the family is extremely difficult. Our hope is to raise donations to help the Heckman family deal with the financial strains of this illness.
Danielle is also extremely grateful for the treatment Steven has been receiving from the Cohen’s Children’s Hospital and wants to donate a portion of the proceeds back to the Hematology and Oncology Department to provide Laptops and Entertainment Systems for all of the rooms on the floor. Some children are there for months unable to see their younger sisters and brothers and the only means of communication is via Skype.
