To Our St. Baldrick’s Friends,
Thank you for the opportunity to celebrate our daughter’s 9th birthday today. Your devotion to St. Baldrick’s funded childhood cancer research.
Protocols were developed — strong enough to kill the cancer, but save the child. Your gift saved our Sara’s life. Today, we celebrate with you!
TOGETHER, we are stronger than cancer.
Much appreciation,
Joe and Erin Martorano
Sara’s family started a Hero Fund called “Just Do It…and be done with it.” You can raise money to support this Hero Fund and help find cures for kids with cancer. Just email us at funds@stbaldricks.org or by phone at 888-899-2253 to start your event.
