Review for Allyson Whitney Foundation, Inc., Rock Hill, NY, USA
My friend, Jazmine Fuentes, was The Allyson Whitney Foundation's 1st Life Interrupted Grant recipient. In her early 20's, Jazmine was diagnosed with Stage IV Pancreatic Cancer. This was a devastating blow to her and everyone around her. Her close friends started fundraising for her to help with travel expenses, hotel costs, cell phone bills - anything we could do to help her during her fight.
Jazmine lost her battle in November of 2014. But her honor and memory did not stop there... We were graciously asked to be part of the Allyson Whitney Foundation to help with grassroots events. This was our way of honoring Jazmine, and help other young adults who are going through what she went through.
My work with The Allyson Whitney Foundation provides me with a sense of accomplishment and fulfillment. This is my way of paying it forward in the world. My way of helping another who is facing the ultimate nightmare that is cancer.
All the work is done by volunteers at The Allyson Whitney Foundation... It's a passion and drive that everyone has... The passion and drive to help others during their most difficult times. Whether we do it to honor some who passed, someone who is currently fighting or do it for our self, we all love working with The Allyson Whitney Foundation and stand up for what they believe in!
