Noah
Boo 4 Cancer is one extraordinary 7-year-old's way of giving back to those that have given him so much


Noah was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) in the fall of 2007 when he was 5 years old. Noah spent that first week at Children's Hospital in Aurora Colorado. That first week was tough. Noah underwent several surgeries, one to install a titanium port in his chest where chemo drugs could be administered and blood taken, and several others to remove bone marrow from his hip. Noah's parents don't remember him smiling a single time that first week. Since then, Noah and his family have seen an outpouring of love and support from friends, families, charities, and even complete strangers. Noah is still on daily chemotherapy and will be until he is almost 9.



Noah and Ben
2010 Garage Sale!

It's been a few months since we've updated our site, we are happy to report that Noah is doing well. We are sad to say that we too have been hit by the downturn in the economy though and must leave the home and community we have grown to love. We will be relocating to Washington state in June and Noah will be finishing his treatment in the Children's Hospital in Seattle. Before we go, however, Noah has expressed a desire to throw one more charity bash garage/bake sale. This time he would like to raise money for a friend that he met several months ago at another fundraiser. Ben, like Noah, is 8 years old, loves Super Mario Bros, and is fighting cancer. Ben was diagnosed with Neuroblastoma when he was 2 1/2 years old. Ben's cancer went into remission but came back last July. He is now undergoing advanced treatment in both New York and Colorado and spends a lot of time in the hospital. This year, all the money we raise will be donated to the Ben Brewer Fight Fund.
The garage sale will be held at our home address: 3307 Chandon Way, Highlands Ranch, CO 80126 on May 27, 28, and 29. This will not be your normal garage sale! Come for the home baked treats, come for the piles of stuff, come to support a good cause. We are also accepting donations from the community. Anything that is not sold at the garage sale will be subsequently donated to the DAV or other similar local charity.




The Children's Hospital
2009 Activities
Noah's experiences have made him very aware of the power we all have to help one another. In that spirit, this summer Noah decided that it was time to give something back to all those that have helped him thereby helping out other children who like him are battling childhood cancer. It began with a charity garage sale that garnered some media attention. The news stories that aired on the garage sale spurred interest in the t-shirts that he had designed. To date Noah has sold over 800 t-shirts and raised over $12,000 for the three charities that he has chosen:

The Gabby Krause Foundation
Make-A-Wish Foundation of Colorado
The Children's Hospital Oncology Clinic


Gabby Krause Foundation
All of the money Noah raises is split between charities that he has selected. Thanks to the Texttonics team, who has donated much of their time and resources to keeping costs down, and to Microsoft who matches each donation, every dollar spent on Noah's shirts results in an equal or greater amount being donated to help the fight against childhood cancer.

This site is dedicated to both raising awareness of childhood cancer and raising funds for organizations that have direct and often immediate impact in the lives of those children who must fight this terrible disease. We can all make a difference in the fight against cancer.
  
 


We raise money to fight childhood cancer. It's time we all scare cancer instead of letting it scare us.
