Building awareness, as well as a team, and creating and implementing our outings at no cost takes a tremendous amount of time and effort and I need your support to be able to continue this work. I remain devoted to this work which is my life’s calling and it is my goal to be able to dedicate my time fully to Brave Little Fighters in the months and years to come.
More children are joining BLFF each day but we still have incredibly limited resources. BLFF has quickly had a positive impact in our community and in response to our growth, we have offered 20 outings in less than one year. Despite having no funding in our initial months, I worked hard to establish our roots and grow the number of families we could impact. I knew what I needed to do and although it would be a challenging road ahead, within 3 weeks, I established BLFF. until our superhero photo shoot.įor a bit of background, in November 2018, I learned that my job, which allowed me to serve sick children, would be ending after 10 years. One father said that he had not seen his son smile in so long. Sports game, superhero family photo shoots, art and cooking classes, and trips to the pumpkin farm and theme parks are just a few of the outings we’ve hosted so far. Brave Little Fighters face a range of illnesses including cancer, cystic fibrosis, spina bifida, chiari malformation, neurological disorders, rheumatic diseases and other serious and terminal illnesses.īrave Outings offer a unique kind of healing in a carefree atmosphere. We aim to ease the heartache, uncertainty, and challenges faced by children with serious illnesses by offering outings year round, all free of charge. My name is Lizzie and I am the founder of the Brave Little Fighters Foundation (BLFF), a new nonprofit organization in Buffalo, New York.
