Support Funds For Nathan's Cancer Treatment

Hi, my name is Maaz and I’m starting this fundraiser for a bright young man, named Nathan Farnsworth, a 22 year-old aspiring dentist who has been battling Soft Tissue Sarcoma for just under one year.

Thanksgiving break of 2022 marked the first of many chemotherapy sessions for Nathan and his family, who just days before got confirmation of his cancer diagnosis. Nathan was attending Wayne State University when he was diagnosed, a university well matched for him since he embodies being Warrior Strong. Since his diagnosis, he has continued his pursuit for higher education as he set his sights on becoming a dentist. He is now going to be attending the Dentistry Program at University of Detroit Mercy. You can learn more about Nathan and his Warrior Strong spirit here: https://tinyurl.com/2da85j6j

I only had the pleasure of meeting Nathan one time, last year, at a local school fundraiser right at the start of his battle. Everything else, I learned about Nathan from his father and my co-worker, Marty. Marty may very well be the best person that I have had the honor of knowing, he is a kindhearted individual whose love for his son is knows no bounds. He has been my best friend at work and done everything in his power to help and mentor me since I started. He really treats me as one of his own and now I am here to to ask for your aid in bringing in the cavalry, the big guns.

Recently, Nathan and his family were informed that they need to go to Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in NYC for a clinical trial. As a humble family from rural Detroit, that is a huge task and quite a financial burden to endure. Most likely Nathan's mom will need to accompany him across the country, while Marty and the rest of the family stay here. As much as Marty would love to accompany his son, he has to continue providing for his family so that they can afford Nathan's expensive chemotherapy treatments. I am seeking to help lighten that financial load on Marty and his family, by raising money for the upcoming costs of flying to NYC and staying in a hotel near the hospital for Nathan and his mom.

My goal is to raise $50,000 which will go directly to Marty and aims to cover the flights, stay and food for 10 rounds of Chemo. As Nathan and his family continue fighting, any contributions will help put their energy where it is needed the most, his recovery. We are grateful for contributions of any size and amount, and if you aren't able to donate, please share this campaign and keep Nathan in your thoughts and prayers. We will continue fighting as we are not just Warrior Strong, but rather FARNSWORTH STRONG!
