March Madness Fundraiser for Kelly Anne Dolan Memorial Fund

Donation protected
The Genetic Counseling Program at the University of Pennsylvania is hosting a March Madness Bracket Pool to support The Kelly Anne Dolan Memorial Fund!

KADMF is a nonprofit organization based in Montgomery County that provides crucial resources for families caring for chronically ill children—covering expenses that insurance doesn’t, such as wheelchair ramps, childcare for siblings, transportation to hospitals, groceries, and rent. The fund was founded in 1976 by Peggy Dolan in memory of her daughter, Kelly Anne, who passed away from leukemia at age six. Learn more about KADMF’s mission here: https://dolanfund.org/who-we-are/

How It Works:
  • Donate at least $20 to this GoFundMe to participate.
  • A $20 donation allows you to enter either the men’s or women’s bracket pool.
  • If you’d like to participate in both, please donate $40.
  • Once you donate, you will receive an email from support@messages. gofundme.com with the links and passwords to join the bracket pools.
  • To join the pools, you will need to create a free account with CBS Sports if you don’t already have one.

Deadlines:
  • Men’s Brackets must be submitted by 12:00 EST on Thursday, March 20, 2025
  • Women’s Brackets must be submitted by 11:30 am ET on Friday, March 21, 2025

Prize Distribution:
Winners will be determined through CBS Bracket Game rules.
  • The winner of the men’s bracket will receive 10% of total funds raised.
  • The winner of the women’s bracket will receive 10% of total funds raised.
  • The remaining 80% of funds will go directly to KADMF to support families in need.

Please do not share the password with anyone who has not donated.

Note: Please ignore the suggested donation amounts on GoFundMe—there’s no pressure to donate more than you’re comfortable with! Just click “Custom Donation” and enter $20, $40, or more to participate. Every bit helps and is greatly appreciated!

Let's make a difference together while enjoying some friendly competition!
