Yesterday, we had the honor of personally delivering a $20,000 donation from the Joseph “💙Jojo💙” LaRosa Foundation to Dr. Emily Slotkin at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center to continue supporting research into DSRCT, the cancer that took Gina’s son, 💙Jojo LaRosa💙.
This is what your generosity makes possible.
Every donation, sponsorship, golf foursome, raffle ticket and every person who supports JJLF helps us continue funding research in Jojo’s name. We want you to know that your support is making a difference and helping move this important research forward.
Jojo fought so incredibly hard and wanted so badly to live. While we can never change what happened to him, we can continue his legacy by helping researchers work toward better treatments and, hopefully one day, a cure for DSRCT.
Dr. Slotkin, thank you for your incredible dedication and for the work you and your team continue to do. We are so grateful for your commitment to DSRCT research and to the families affected by this devastating disease.
And thank you for joining us at our golf outing and taking the time to educate our family, friends and supporters about DSRCT and the research being done. It meant so much to have you there and helped everyone understand exactly why this work is so important.
To everyone who continues to support the Joseph “💙Jojo💙” LaRosa Foundation, thank you. We truly could not do this without you. Every dollar raised helps us keep Jojo’s name, his legacy and his fight moving forward.
Forever in our hearts. Forever making a difference. 💙
In honor of 💙Jojo💙
Joseph “Jojo” LaRosa Foundation
