It is so hard to believe that this week, Ellie would have celebrated her 10th birthday. 💜
Since her passing, our community has helped us turn unimaginable loss into meaningful support for thousands of local families in her memory.
Because of your support, we have:
• Raised more than $400,000 supporting pediatric programs throughout our community
• Built the Children's Garden (Moonflower Garden) at Wood's Counseling and Care center
• Delivered over 2,700 Hope Totes to families facing critical care hospital stays
• Provided more than 1,000 t-shirts for pediatric ER patients and parents in need of clean clothing
• Sponsored a futon bed for one of the Pediatric Emergency overnight rooms allowing parents a more comfortable place to rest while their child is admitted.
• Raised funds for the Infant Safe Sleep kits given to every newborn at Baltimore Washington Medical Center
• Donated countless toys, games, comfort items, and therapy aids for Child Life Specialists at Anne Arundel Medical Center and Baltimore Washington Medical Center
• Supported programs including the Anne Arundel County Back to School Program, SPAN, and more
What started with co****le tournaments, evolved into pickleball — and now, this year, our very first Golf Invitational at Chartwell Golf & Country Club. Interested in playing? Find all the details at https://forellie.regfox.com/golf
Thank you for helping us keep Ellie’s spirit alive through kindness, comfort, and community. 💜
