2025 ANNUAL REPORT
Year of Togetherness
In 2025, Fightstrong continued to grow with purpose — not by rushing forward, but by bringing more people alongside us. With steady momentum from years past, this year was defined by deeper partnerships, broader community involvement, and more hands helping carry our mission forward.
From familiar supporters to new advocates who chose to stand with us for the first time, 2025 showed us that impact grows strongest when it’s shared — and that togetherness is what sustains the fight.
PREVIOUS YEARS
2025 Impact
Each number below represents more than just a milestone — it reflects the time, heart, and effort poured into making 2025 one of our most meaningful years yet. From continued growth in donations and deeper hospital partnerships to countless hours spent showing up for patients and families, this year was defined by connection. 2025 was the year of togetherness. Together, we showed up. Together, we grew stronger. And together, we proved that the Fightstrong community is built to endure.
Where Support Became Shared Stories
Behind every donation and every number is the work that made it possible. In 2025, we didn’t just grow — we showed up with greater intention and impact. From expanding our signature events to deepening hospital partnerships, every effort this year was fueled by creativity, community, and the unshakable belief that impact is built one moment at a time.
The Sound of Survival
The Strong Fighter Award honors those who have reached a powerful milestone — completing cancer treatment. While the fight doesn’t end when treatment does, this award is a celebration of strength, perseverance, and hope. It’s a reminder to every recipient, their family, and our entire community that even in the darkest times, strength can lead the way. And for those still in the midst of the battle — know this: you are not alone, and your moment is coming.

More Than a Gift
On December 28, 2025, Fightstrong Foundation supported 16 families by fulfilling personalized wish lists and welcoming them to a holiday luncheon. For the first time, dedicated volunteer shoppers helped bring each wish to life—adding a personal, hands-on layer of care that ensured every gift was thoughtfully chosen and every family felt truly seen.
Key Moments of Strength
These milestones reflect the power of coming together — from signature events and meaningful hospital partnerships to new, intentional ways of connecting our fighters beyond the moments we gather in person. Each effort strengthened our mission, deepened relationships, and expanded the reach of our support, reinforcing our commitment to showing up consistently for individuals and families facing cancer.
