2016 Christmas Toy Drive
2014 Christmas Deliveries
Here are just a few pictures of many special local SI deliveries Santa & his elf made last week to brave kids battling cancer we have met through Gianna Nicole's Heart of Hope Foundation. Many special elves made this gift giving event AMAZING and we thank you ALL who made donations of toys and Gift cards for teens - from the bottom of our hearts "We are OF the families, FOR the families"
"The goals of this foundation are to assist other families battling pediatric cancer and to enrich our community in ways that would honor our precious angel Gianna. No family should ever have to endure the burden of financial difficulty while fighting for their child’s life. Our hope is that these families will be able to focus only on their child’s life and not the financial burdens that come along with this dreadful disease. Our own personal experiences have made us aware that helping with the monthly bills, hospital bills or simply buying groceries delivers a message that we understand what families are going through and we are here to help. It is an indescribable pain to feel helpless towards your own child and to then cope with the financial burdens of this battle".
To see a tearful thank you or to be hugged by someone who knows that we truly understand what they are going through is priceless. The feeling you get deep in your heart makes you realize that you can make a difference no matter how small or big the gesture. I ask you to help us continue to spread Gianna’s love and hope to all these families in their time of need and be a part of lifting someones spirit and letting them know that you do care. We welcome you to take this opportunity to be a part of something great".
Special thanks & warm hugs to Carla Murino , Lil' handsome Vince, Jamie Lynn Macchia Cousin Joey Positivity Hair Studio, Angela Toward Conti, for making this season a little bit brighter for these brave kids in treatment XOXOXO
