About me: Kids Fight Cancer is a 501C3 not-for-profit corporation that has been funding the Oncology Activity Center at Children's Memorial Hospital in Chicago since 1985.
Founded by four-time cancer survivor, Jim Pesoli, it was his mission to provide pediatric and adolescent cancer patients with a facility that will help the patients cope with their illness, learn about their upcoming procedures and treatment, interact with peers undergoing similar troubles, and to provide the families with a safe-haven while visiting the hospital.
Kids Fight Cancer currently has a fundraising goal of $1 Million to build a new state-of-the-art Oncology Activity Center. Upon reaching that goal, Kids Fight Cancer will immediately implement a $5 Million goal to be put towards perpetual funding of the center, additional treatment programs, and new activity centers at additional hospitals.

Jim any news of any Patrizio concerts for 2009. Last year at this time we were all excited about the show at the Rosemont. It would be a dream come true to be able to do it all over again.
I hope all is well with you, your Dad and the entire family.
Thank ya 4 your friendship and kind messages throughout this year :). I can hardly believe that the festive season is upon us again. It's been such a busy 2008 for us all. Enjoy a safe and happy holiday season with your family. Best wishes from my family and myself. Joyeux Noël ! Clint.
Dear Jim: Hoping you and everyone involved with Kids Fight Cancer had a wonderful 24th Fall Gala Event!! Wishing we would live closer but present in spirit. Sincerely, Erly
Hi Jim, do these two characters look familiar??? he he he
Believe it or not all of us on Patrizio's forum are still talking about the wonderful concert at the Rosemont. We're hoping that someday soon there will be another one. We had the time of our life thanks to you, your Dad and of course Patrizio and Matt. I'm so glad the monies raised helped the children because in reality, that's the only thing that counts!
Take care, stay well and hope to see you again soon.
