In the spring of 2015, our daughter Natalie was diagnosed with Medulary Thyroid Cancer and MEN2A Syndrome.  As anyone could imagine, the thoughts that go through a parents head when the receive news like this regarding their child, panic, worry, sadness and many more than I can begin to describe.  The past 4 years have been pretty rough on the entire family, but we are happy to report that Natalie is 100% Cancer free!  She was nominated by one of her teachers at Davison Senior High School as Inspiring the next generation of global leaders and was invited to attend the 2018 Ambassador Leadership Summit at Yale University July 21st - 27th.  For several years now, Natalie has had her eyes set on attending Yale University upon graduating in 2020 to study Art.  We are trying to raise money in order to send her on this experience of a lifetime.  At this summit, she will be learning leadership skills through a community charity project in New Haven, CT and then will be tasked to implement a similar project here in her local community.  Due to the high medical expenses that we incurred throughout her treatment, we are unable to finance this opportunity on our own.  No donation is too small and all is appreciated.  Please help us make her dreams come true!
