Providing Financial Assistance For Families With Hospitalized Children with Life-Threatening Conditions

BrandStory

While at the hospital with my sweet son Blaze, who was diagnosed with liver cancer at seven months old, I saw other families desperately needing hope of their own. Not only were they struggling with the unexplainable sadness and pain involved, but they were also struggling to meet their personal financial responsibilities. These people chose their child instead of their mortgage payment, a choice no parent should have to make. This experience has driven my whole life from that point forward. What motivates me is my dedication to honor my son by showing the same love, compassion, and grace for others I once received. I created "Blaze of Hope" a 501c3 non-profit organization that provides financial assistance to families of hospitalized children with life-threatening conditions. Every day I am thankful for another opportunity to “spread hope like wildfire.”
