As Chairman of the Casey Cares Foundation Board, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for your support of our charity that's incredibly important to Ellen and me.

First, we would like to thank everyone who supported our Annual Rock 'n Roll Bash this year. It was an amazing success thanks to your generosity!

We both serve as Board Members because Casey Cares Programs make a huge impact on kids grappling with life-threatening illnesses and their families. Being a part of this, I've personally witnessed the instant and lasting joy Casey Cares brings to these kids.

When families are overwhelmed, giving a critically-ill child, their siblings, and parents tickets to a baseball game after a tough hospital stay, or hosting a Home Movie & Pizza Night for a family confined to their home due to their child's immune system can make a world of difference to them. Or sending a family of six to the Aquarium or a holiday party may be an adventure they'd never afford otherwise. These are just examples of thousands of amazing programs Casey Cares organizes for these families every year.

In a world where medical treatments and bills take up most of the focus, there's often little room for smiles, happiness, and the festive spirit. But your support is changing that. You're helping us bring joy and the holiday spirit to the lives of critically ill kids, and that's pretty amazing. Thanks for being part of this journey with us.

Mike and Ellen DiMayo
