Every Cure, Inc.

Last year, on my birthday, my family and I laid my beautiful Nonna Maria to rest. That day changed what birthdays mean to me. This year — and every year moving forward — I want my birthday to stand for something different: hope, healing, and giving back.

In her memory, I’m raising funds for Every Cure Inc., a nonprofit dedicated to unlocking the full potential of existing medicines to treat every disease and every patient they possibly can. Their mission resonates deeply with me — because I’ve seen how much strength and love it takes to fight illness, and how powerful it is when science and compassion come together to make a difference.

Your support helps Every Cure continue their groundbreaking work by:

• Expanding research to identify new uses for existing medications.

• Facilitating clinical trials that bring innovative treatments to patients faster.

• Providing resources and support to those in need of medical solutions.

Instead of birthday gifts this year, I’m asking my friends and family to join me in honoring Nonna Maria’s memory by supporting Every Cure.

Most people don’t realize that when a drug’s patent expires and it becomes generic, big pharmaceutical companies usually stop researching it — even though it might still hold the key to treating other diseases.

There are thousands of existing medicines that could be repurposed to save lives, but no one’s exploring them because there’s no financial incentive.

EveryCure is changing that — using data-driven research to find every possible use for every drug, so that healing doesn’t stop when profits do.

Together, we can help bring hope and healing to countless others — and make this birthday about something that truly lasts.

Thank you for helping me celebrate in a meaningful way.
