Story
My goal is to raise funds to help ensure UPMC Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh is able to provide care for children diagnosed with cancer.
I’m fundraising for Children’s Hospital because of my diagnosis of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in September 2020. I am undergoing chemotherapy through December 2022 and have received amazing treatment from the medical and support staff at Children's.
Especially important to me is the Child Life Department who provides developmental, educational, social, and emotional support to children at the hospital. The Child Life Department for Hematology/Oncology (9th Floor) helped me make it through tough days of treatments while hospitalized. They work with kids of all ages from babies to teenagers, many of whom are Erie area residents.
Thanks for helping me help others!
