We are deeply saddened to share that our co-founder,
@andrewjhoffman
, passed away this morning from glioblastoma. Andy was our fearless leader who loved his family with all his heart. Andy, we love you & we promise to honor your legacy by fighting harder than ever for kids.
Please keep Jack in your prayers as he heads in for surgery tomorrow morning in New York. He will be undergoing a tumor resection to remove as much of the tumor as possible and, hopefully, to control his seizures.
Your thoughts, prayers, and positive energy are appreciated!🙏🩷
Been a long week. Woke up Tuesday morning and couldn’t walk and threw up 4 times throughout the day. Waited until Wednesday to see if would get better and it didn’t. Was rushed to mayo by an angel flight...
So blessed to continue to have the opportunity to raise awareness for child brain cancer. Childhood cancer of any kind needs to be a thing of the past.

This brain tumor is ornery. After another round of check ups this thing showed us just how stubborn it can be. Just 5 weeks after interim treatment of two new spots, yesterday’s MRI revealed another new spot....
Sending prayers to sweet Emma today. Her MRI results from last week were not what her family had hoped for. Please pray for Emma and that her team can soon find the best course of treatment for her! EmmaStrong

Read Randy York's article here:
Alex was our TJF Gala speaker this past Feb. He shared the story of his injury and comeback to the NFL. Then, he brought the entire room to silence and tears when he publicly spoke about his daughter and her fight for the first time. So raw and so real. We must keep fighting.
Prayers: Alex Smith’s daughter, Sloane, was diagnosed with a brain tumor in 2022 and the family is living “scan to scan” Alex Smith told the

She continues to undergo tests and scans during her recovery. Smith admits that he is feeling "helpless" throughout the process.
