Join us in our efforts to help knock Cancer out of the park!

We are walking for the second year as a team in the virtual walk. Please join us this year for the walk and hopefully for some lunch afterwards. We had a great time walking last year as a team in Busse Woods in Elk Grove Village. You can become a fundraising member, contribute on my page, just walk with us, or wish us well as we walk for a great cause.

Our team will be doing the virtual walk on Saturday, October 9 at 1 p.m. with a rain date of Saturday, October 16. We will be walking again at Busse Woods in Elk Grove Village. We will then meet up for cold beverages and sandwiches at Pop's Pizza and Sports Bar in Roselle around 3 p.m.

Below you can read about some of the great things the Anthony Rizzo Family Foundation for families battling cancer.

Thanks,

Family and friends I am asking for your support as I set out to reach my goal of raising money for families battling cancer. 50% of families who face a pediatric cancer diagnosis end up filing for personal bankruptcy.

The financial burden of cancer, on top of everyday struggles and unexpected hospital visits, makes overcoming a cancer diagnosis even more challenging. When a child is diagnosed with Cancer, one parent typically has to stop working making the financial impact even greater. Caregivers are having to choose between paying their everyday living expenses such as mortgages/rent, electrical and gas bills and their child's next round of medication.

The Anthony Rizzo Family Foundation helps alleviate the financial stress by providing direct monetary grants to families so no parent ever has to choose between paying a bill and saving their child's life.

The Foundation's goal is to help alleviate the financial burden so parents can focus on keeping their families together and getting their child better.
