Tonight at Madison Square Garden was electrifying, the kind of night that reminds you what “community” really means.
As Sullivan Papain Block McManus Coffinas & Cannavo P.C. dedicated the St. John’s University vs University of Connecticut rivalry game to the New York Firefighters Foundation, you could feel the arena rallying around our little hero, Izzy Cashion — as she battles DIPG. 🎗️💜
On the court, alongside co-sponsor LBi Software, Sullivan Papain presented a $10,000 gift to help fuel our mission: stepping in when FDNY families need it most — off-duty injury, serious childhood illness, complicated births, and unimaginable loss.
With New York Firefighters Foundation leadership — Andrew Ansbro, Robert Eustace, and Chris Viola — standing beside us, the message was loud and clear:
Izzy is not fighting alone. And neither is her family. 🫶🏼
And the night didn’t stop there. A heartfelt thank you to The Fleur Room for the incredible hospitality — and to Allan Houston and John Starks for showing up with love, strength, and support — and for leading us in prayer to guide us and the Cashion family through the days ahead. 🙏💜
If you’ve been looking for a sign to show up for a family in the fight of their lives… this is it.
Drop a 💜 for Izzy — and share this post to keep the momentum moving.
