We lost our three year old daughter, Jordy, to leukemia two years ago. We started The Jordy Foundation in her memory. The Foundation's purpose as a whole, is to help children going through cancer treatments and their families. Our first and ongoing mission is to provide iPads and Tablets to children undergoing treatment. When Jordy was going through her treatment, her iPad was her main source of entertainment, being stuck in her hospital room except for one hour a day out in a playroom, and was her way to connect with family at home, like her 5 year old brother, who could not be there all the time.
We would love to invite everyone to attend our annual event- The Jordy Foundation Dance Party! This will be an outdoor event at Frogbridge Day Camp in Millstone, NJ, on September 26th, from 11:00 am until 3:00 p.m. We also have a virtual option and will be live streaming the event for anyone who cannot attend in person. When Jordyn would be in her hospital room, she loved to have Dance Parties. All the nurses and doctors knew this and you could always find music blasting and hospital staff partying in Jordy's room and my baby jumping on her bed to the music. We could not think of a better event to remember her and raise money for a good cause.
Registration is now open. The cost is $30 per person or $95 per family. Of course, a donation in any amount is very much appreciated and will be put to great use. You can register and learn more about The Foundation at www.thejordyfoundation.com.
