Fundraiser for 2 year-old with cancer
My friend’s 2 ½ year old daughter was recently diagnosed with Wilm’s Tumor. It is a childhood cancer that affects the kidneys. Doctors discovered that Maddy had a tumor the size of a grapefruit in her left kidney. She immediately went in for surgery to remove the tumor and her kidney. However, the cancer had already spread to her lungs. Maddy underwent radiation and she will continue to receive chemotherapy one time a week for at least 6 months. In the meantime, her mother, a speech therapist at United Cerebral Palsy had to take a leave of absence to take care of Maddy. Maddy also has a twin brother, Jack who continues to go to day care. Their dad is a history teacher and basketball coach for the Mary Lewis Academy, an all girl’s Catholic school.
I have organized a fundraiser to help Madison and her family. Does anyone know where I can get some sponsors or donations for raffle prizes?
Thanks in advance!

Bring a copy of the flyer for the fundraiser to local merchants and they should donate. Please post an address, so I can send a small check. Best of luck w/your fundraiser. I will for your friend's daughter.
