It's pretty simple. If you give you get entered to win and this is a win, win! Not only are you helping this precious, beautiful baby, but you are helping a fellow R2R member and firefighter!

Here's the story:

On February 25, 2014, 20 month old Lillyana Worthington was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL). Any parent can imagine the shock and horror of hearing “your baby has cancer.” Fortunately for Lillyana, ALL has a 90% cure rate. However, to achieve this cure she will have to go through two years of intensive chemotherapy in Orlando. Lillyana’s daddy is a professional Palm Bay combat Firefighter and is a member of union Local 2446 . Her mommy has had to stop working in order to care for her, reducing the family to a single income.

We are trying to raise money to ease the financial burdens associated with frequent travel, medical expenses, and the loss of half of their family income. Lillyana’s parents should be focusing on her and her treatment and not the financial hardship a diagnosis of cancer entails. Any money raised will go towards costs associated with Lillyana’s diagnosis. Please donate, every little bit helps!

"Arrangements have been made for all funds to directly to the Worthington Family"

Here is where you give: Help Lillyana Fight Cancer by Janae Rock Mcculloch - GoFundMe

Donation made, my second one.
Did one when Mike (SC) published it too on one of his threads.
And FYI, if......just if (cause I never win anything anyways), the light and or pump will be for action on R2R, 100% proceeds will go to Help Lillyana Fight Cancer by Janae Rock Mcculloch - GoFundMe.
Will pray and I'm sure they will reach their goal but for most to help Lillyana be cancer free.

Donated..after dropping $3000+ on a new tank it kinda puts things into perspective. I hope all goes well for that little one. I forgot to leave my user name in the notes. If you need a receipt for the raffle I have it and can pm it to you. Otherwise I gave to a good cause and will forgo the raffle.
