Young Kids support FDNY Foundation

As Seen on Shark Tank. My siblings and I are beyond grateful for all of the support and love we have been given. We want to give back as our way of saying thank you. The FDNY has been nothing short of incredible in supporting our family. We have set up this GoFundMe Page to give 100% to the FDNY Foundation's Fired Up for a Cure to support their efforts. 

We will be presenting a check  to the FDNY Foundation's Fired Up for a Cure from the donations raised through this campaign during our Thanksgiving Break. 

Thank you for being part of this journey with us! Great things happen when People Help the People.

With Gratitude,
Kaley, Christian, and Keira Young

More info on the FDNY Foundation's Fired up For a Cure: "Since 2015, in collaboration with the FDNY Foundation and the American Cancer Society (Greater New York Chapter), we have led the efforts to permanently support cancer awareness, prevention and research for our uniformed first responders, our civilian members of the department and their families diagnosed with cancer. We have been at the forefront protecting our members through our screening and early detection programs.
 

OUR MISSION
The goal of this initiative is to prevent, educate and advocate about the importance of annual medical exams; and to remind our FDNY community to participate in the preventative screenings and programs created by the department such as: smoking cessation, mammograms, low dose CT scans for at-risk members, endoscopes and colonoscopies. The yearly medicals that take place under our medical monitoring program include blood/labs and chest x-rays. The combinations of the screenings and yearly medicals have led to the early detection of various cancers. The mission of FIRED UP for a CURE is primarily to inspire our members and their families, as well as showing our admiration for their daily strength, courage and the resolve demonstrated by those who have lived with cancer, fought with cancer, survived cancer, or lost their battle with cancer.

 Our secondary mission is to empower our cancer survivors to embrace life beyond having a cancer diagnosis. Fired Up for a Cure aims to show cancer survivors how to overcome the psychological and physical challenges of cancer treatment through teamwork and strong interpersonal support from a network of their fellow survivors.  As Oncology Case Managers, the compassion we feel for all those touched by cancer (from the cancer survivor, to those who worry and care for a cancer sufferer, to those who want to help and those who have suffered the loss of a loved one to cancer) has a huge impact on our work.

 Indirectly, our mission is to motivate others not directly affected by cancer (especially local businesses and for-profit organizations/businesses), to collaborate, donate to, and/or sponsor our events that  will encourage and uplift our community thereby building awareness of the presence cancer has in people’s lives and the critical need for monetary support. This is the hope we carry for the recovery of every individual struggling with cancer and the finding of a cure."
