The Michael Magro Foundation is on a mission to support families facing the challenges of pediatric cancer, and we need YOUR help! ?️ Every day, we receive requests for families in need of basic life essentials like food, gas, clothing, and more.

How can you contribute? By donating gift cards! Your generous gift cards provide families with the flexibility to buy what they need most during this difficult time. From groceries to gas, your contribution can make a world of difference.

Let's come together and show these families that they're not alone in their journey. Your support means the world to us and the families we aim to help.

Thanks to your incredible support, MMF's Adopt a Family program made the holidays brighter for 13 families! We're thrilled to share that we donated $1,000 to 12 families along with assorted gift cards.

But the impact goes beyond just monetary contributions. One family specifically requested outer clothing for their 6-year-old daughter, and we were able to provide that essential warmth and comfort. Additionally, a heartfelt check of $500 was presented to further support their needs.

We just wanted to take a moment to express our gratitude for the heartwarming thank you letters and emails we receive from the families we've had the privilege to help. While we don't expect gratitude, these messages truly make our day and remind us of the impact we're making together.

Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your journey!

On January 14, we received a request from a pediatric social worker at Hassenfeld Children’s Hospital seeking items for a 3-year-old girl with leukemia named Ezranique. Her mom and Ezranique were unexpectedly staying in NYC while visiting friends on vacation and found themselves in need of basic items and warmer clothes for an extended stay.

To assist them during their stay at the Ronald McDonald House, we placed an order on Amazon for a stroller, diapers, boots, coat, pajamas, and a hoodie. However, during the checkout process, we overlooked changing the shipping address. Unfortunately, all the items were delivered to Hicksville, creating an urgent need to get them to the family as soon as possible.

In a moment of distress, we reached out to one of our community partners at Amazon and explained the situation to Tom Higgins, who serves as both a manager and volunteer for MMF and works at Amazon. Tom promptly reassured me, saying, "No worries, Amazon will pick everything up and deliver it to the facility tomorrow." we were immensely grateful for his quick and supportive response.

Tom further shared that Amazon is committed to assisting with logistics for charitable organizations on Long Island. He explained that Amazon routinely coordinates pickups and drop-offs for various initiatives, including coat drives, Toys for Tots, and transporting food donations from collection points to food banks.

After consulting with drivers, Tom happily arranged for my items to be routed onto a van headed into Manhattan, ensuring a timely delivery for our little warrior. A heartfelt thank you to Tom, his team, and Amazon for their invaluable role as community partners in supporting charitable endeavors.
