We Fight in Ada's Memory
Ada’s Spark is dedicated to honoring the enduring memory of our beloved Ada, whose vibrant spirit continues to inspire us. Through our unwavering commitment, we strive to ignite positive change in the lives of those affected by childhood cancer and Leukemia. Guided by our collective experiences in research, drug development, and navigating the healthcare system, we are driven to support scientific breakthroughs, charitable initiatives, and educational endeavors.
Our mission encompasses raising money for established organizations (e.g. Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, the MACC Fund, UW Carbone Cancer Center) to support childhood cancer research, as well as offering comfort and joy to childhood cancer patients and their families through thoughtful gestures like our annual toy drive. Additionally, we extend our embrace to bereaved families, raising money for and volunteering with organizations like Agrace Hospice, Gilda’s Club, and Camp Hope to provide compassionate support and healing. Ada’s Spark shines brightly as a beacon of hope, illuminating pathways to resilience, empowerment, and enduring impact in the fight against childhood cancer, leukemia and beyond.
