The Craig Willinger Fund (CWFund) proudly announces the selection of 19-year-old Sebastián Roldán Ramos of St. Mary’s County, Maryland, as our newest honoree. Sebastian will travel to Madrid, Spain, to see Real Madrid at the Bernabéu.
Sebastián was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in 2023 and has persevered through two recurrences of the disease, a bone marrow transplant, and extended acute inpatient treatment. Despite these challenges, Sebastián graduated from Chopticon High School in 2025 and continues to pursue his passion to become a commercial pilot.
“Sebastián channeled his love for soccer into an escape from the challenges of cancer treatment,” shared CWFund chairperson Emily Agueda. “We hope that sending him to Madrid will be a celebration of the joy he finds in the beautiful game and an official start to a new chapter in his life.”
Congratulations Sebastián!
