We are a nonprofit 501(c)(3) charity formed after the culmination of a three-year battle with cancer. Barrett Fitzsimmons was diagnosed with stage IV hepatocellular carcinoma in May 2016 at age 6. His courageous battle with cancer has been well known through the Barrett Strong! Movement. Barrett recently finished third grade at Northwestern Elementary School. He loved playing most sports including, football, wrestling, soccer, basketball, and baseball. Barrett enjoyed fishing, video games, dinosaurs, and watching Michigan football. Barrett passed away peacefully at Dayton Children’s Hospital, surrounded by his loving family on May 28, 2019.
