Michael, Benny, and I wanted to share our fundraiser for The Children’s Heart Foundation. 

Many of you know that our sweet Benny was born with one lung and Congenital Heart Disease, amongst a few other unique diagnosis. We’re beyond grateful that he has shown incredible strength and resilience and—so far—hasn’t needed any interventions. There really aren’t words to say how lucky we feel to be this little warriors parents, and that he made it here safe and sound with us. We truly don’t take a single moment with our happy, and healthy, guy for granted. We also are fortunate enough to have an incredible village of love and support behind us and words could never express our gratitude for you all.
 
Gratitude is what drives us to give back. As a family, we’ve committed to making a difference by joining this years Congenital Heart Walk. For us, this walk is about far more than getting some fresh air for a great cause—it’s about honoring Benny’s life long journey and helping shape a brighter future for all children born with CHD. The event supports The Children’s Heart Foundation, whose mission is to advance the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of congenital heart defects through innovative and life-saving research.

So if you're reading this, we’d be honored to have you join us on this journey—whether that means walking alongside us, making a donation, or simply cheering us on from afar. Every bit of love and support is felt and held so close to each of our hearts.

Thank you for your generosity, your encouragement, and for walking beside us (in spirit or in sneakers). Your support truly means the world to our little family. God speed and much love.
