Their Battle. Your Hands. Our Hope.

from a personal battle to a movement.

From Loved Ones to Leaders.

What began as a small group rallying behind the Nigro family during Joseph’s diagnosis has grown into something far greater than any of us could have imagined. Our volunteers first showed up when the Nigros needed it most—and they haven’t stopped showing up since. Today, they continue to lead with heart, supporting our mission to stand beside those battling cancer. Our team is made up of family, friends, and the very fighters we’ve had the honor to support.

Community Over Everything

We’re not driven by time or money — we’re driven by people. Our strength comes from showing up for one another, always.

Healing Hands

From wrapping gifts to delivering support, every effort is made with care. We lead with compassion and serve with purpose.

Fueled by Passion

This isn’t a job — it’s a calling. Our volunteers bring heart, energy, and an unshakable commitment to every moment.

Joy in Every Moment

Even in the hardest moments, we show up with a smile. Lifting spirits is just as important as lifting burdens.

Words That Matter

We believe in the power of encouragement. A kind word, a shared story, or simply saying “we’re here” can change everything.

Each year, our biggest and most heartwarming initiative is our Christmas Donation Drive. Volunteers help bring joy to families by shopping for gifts, wrapping them with care, and setting up for distribution day. From organizing presents to making sure every detail is in place, this team brings the magic of the season to life. Your time, energy, and enthusiasm are what make this day unforgettable for the families we serve.

Our events are where community, connection, and impact collide — and volunteers make it all happen. From pre-event setup to day-of roles, this team helps manage logistics, guide participants, and assist with raffles, sponsorships, ball drops, and more. Whether you're greeting guests or selling tickets, your role supports the success of our mission. Every event becomes meaningful because of the people behind the scenes.
DONATION PROGRAM
DONATION PROGRAM
Volunteers on this team help strengthen our reach and resources year-round. This includes collecting raffle items, securing in-kind donations, and connecting us with families in need of support. You’ll be the reason we can say yes when a patient or family needs help. Whether it’s a small donation or a big referral, every action you take makes a difference.

Meet the Team

Behind every delivery, every event, and every act of support is a team of passionate volunteers who believe in something bigger than themselves. They are family members, survivors, friends, and community members who have turned compassion into action. What unites them isn’t a title — it’s a shared purpose: to lift others up in the fight against cancer. This is more than a team — it’s a family built on heart, grit, and the belief that no one should fight alone.
