Today marks the last day of September, which was also Childhood Cancer Month. When our friend's son was diagnosed with cancer, they founded an organization called The Pablove Foundation.
The mission of The Pablove Foundation is to fund pediatric cancer research and advances in treatment, educate and empower cancer families, and improve the quality of life for children living with cancer through hospital play, music and arts programs.
Pablo passed away a couple years ago, right after his 6th birthday. I cannot even imagine the heartbreak of first, watching your child fight such a horrific battle, and second, burying your baby. It's not ok. Yet so many children go through this every day. I know there are so many organizations asking for support. We get asked all the time, and unfortunately, just can't do it all. But this is one we are completely behind. We know the people who founded and run it. And we support the cause because we can't imagine going through this with our boys.
A couple years ago, Brian joined Jeff for part of the inaugural Pablove Across America ride. It really was something he enjoyed, and very powerful. In three weeks, he'll be joining the ride from Nashville to New Orleans. That's 526 miles in a week. Whether you have $5 burning a hole in your pocket, or are looking for a big tax write-off, any support is appreciated. Or, just visit Brian's page, and just leave some encouraging words. Thanks.
