Meet Matt 🎨 — a Tommy Fund survivor who’s turned his talent into impact.

Over the years, Matt has refined his graphic design skills and now generously contributes them to Tommy Fund for Childhood Cancer.

His hope? To work even more regularly with these organizations — and other businesses — that could benefit from his creativity.

Some of his standout contributions to the Tommy Fund include designing the brand-new “Hats for Hope” logo, creating fundraising flyers distributed to hundreds of schools across Connecticut, and donating his artwork for the recent “Tee Up for the Tommy Fund” golf outing. 🏌️
Matt will continue his follow-up care at the HEROS Clinic, and is working on upcoming marketing projects. Keep an eye out for his beautiful designs! ✨

💛 Are you a survivor three or more years post-treatment? Don’t forget to schedule your new year appointment at HEROS, just like Matt, by emailing [email protected].
