The Story Behind This Hero Fund

Amagoia was our beloved 22 month-old daughter. When she was 15 months she was diagnosed with medulloblastoma, a type of brain tumor. She fought with bravery and courage for 7 months.

Amagoia was a happy joy-filled girl who loved to laugh. She was a beautiful and intelligent. Her will to live was strong and helped carry us forward throughout her treatment. She loved playing with books and taking pictures and videos on the iPhone that she could watch later.

Even at a young age she taught us how to make the most out of life and enjoy every second. From heaven she encourages us to move ahead and do what we can to help find cures for childhood cancer. That is why we have started this Fund with St. Baldrick’s to support childhood cancer research. Amagoia remains in our hearts and minds every second, helping us to work together to conquer childhood cancer.
