For the last few years we’ve held fundraisers for organizations that strive to provide paediatric hospital care or that help to support local medical families, as a way to give back for the care our son received and the compassionate support we received and continue to, during his hospital stays.
Our first fundraiser in 2023 was for the Children’s Health Foundation of LHSC because they are the reason our son is alive - he continues to depend on them for emergency and ongoing care needs.
Our second fundraiser in 2024 was for Little Hands Kids for a Cause. They are an incredible organization who supports local medical heroes and their families in many different ways.
Our upcoming fundraiser in 2025 will be a Windsor Spitfires game for WE Care for Kids. We chose WE Care, as they strive to keep as many families as possible off of the 401 or from having to go to Detroit for their child’s hospital care.
Leaving for care is extremely difficult and we want to do our part in keeping as many families as possible here and together. We also want to honour Dr. Joe Galiwango’s legacy, as he was instrumental in starting WE Care and he was an amazing paediatrician whose contributions to paediatric care will never be forgotten! Dr. Joe was the best!
We hope to continue to do an annual fundraiser for a local organization who supports paediatric patients and their families.
We understand how difficult it can be to have a medically fragile child and how this impacts families and want to help in any way that we can.
Thank you! Please see the attached posters for our fundraisers!
