These are just a few of the things we have done. We have numerous requests currently on hold. We never want to have to turn down a request due to a lack of funds, thus the reason for the expansion of our fund raising base.
For the Matthew Foster Foundation and all of our members, it is a joy and a privilege to help families of children with cancer. You have our heartfelt gratitude for your help in making all of this possible.
