Rorey O'Connor, a 7-year-old girl in the 1st grade, realized one day that not every child is blessed, as she is, with good health. Hearing about the devastating impact and loss that childhood cancer brings with it, she decided she wanted to help in any way she could. She is now raising money by running in The Color Run - Chicago on June 7, 2015 in an effort to "Bring Flashes of Color for Cancer."

So happy to finally deliver our donation to Flashes of Hope at a family cancer picnic at the Advocate Children's Hospital in Oak Lawn, Illinois this Saturday! It was so humbling to see all these children and families in so much joy and happiness, despite what they are going through, with their children in chemo and other treatments. Such a testament to Flashes of Hope for helping these families document the struggle and happiness that they are simultaneously going through - we wish them all the best in their endeavors. And thank you all, so much, for all that you did to raise money to help their cause - there are many, many families who will relish these photographs and time with their children, many of whom do not have much left. Thank you all for helping others - it is truly what we're all put here on earth to do.

Color Run complete! Rorey was able to raise more than $1,200 for Flashes of Hope Chicago to help fight against pediatric cancer. Thank you so, so much for all of those who donated and helped support Rorey in this endeavor - it was an experience she will truly never forget. We can't thank everyone enough, from the bottom of our hearts.
