“Make it to be aN adult”
A simple ‘bucket list’ wish, written in one of Maggie’s notebooks, found in her bedroom after she died.
Tragically, cancer had other plans. Maggie lost her life to a rare and aggressive cancer called Malignant Rhabdoid Tumors on June 1st, 2017, just a few weeks after her 17th birthday. It was a grueling battle that ended within 10 months of her first complaining of pain.
Maggie’s Mission was founded in honor of Maggie’s love of children. She asked us before she died to help save other children from suffering.
Since September 2017, we committed our lives without Maggie to making a difference for children and families by volunteering our time and raising over $2.5 million to fund research, provide financial assistance, and delivering 61 meals to families staying at Ronald McDonald House New York.
Thank you to our family, friends, volunteers, and supporters. It is because of all of you we were able to generate the necessary funds!

THE GOOD WE DID
We are so proud of the Good We Did since we lost our Maggie. In our over seven plus years of giving back, we helped raise awareness and funding to find cures.
“The more we raise awareness, the easier it becomes to make change. So that ultimately, we end up with a cure.”
