Although the rain threatened, the rain never came to Elmhurst.  Perhaps Jack Lupo would not allow the rain to fall upon his family and friends.  Neuroblastoma claimed the young life of Jack Lupo in December, 2003.

Inspired by "Alex's Lemonade Stand Alex's Lemonade Stand Fund at The Philadelphia Foundation," Chris Lupo, Jack's father, approached the Friends For Steven Pediatric Cancer Foundation about having a booth at Elmfest.  The timing was right, as FFS was again planning its annual "Kool-Aid for Kids."

In just one week, Chris put together an army of volunteers to staff the FFS booth over the three-day event.  The Lupo family was able to raise over $2000 for Neuroblastoma research!  Well done, Chris!

There are community festivals throughout the summer months.  You, too, can do a Kool-Aid for Kids booth.  We have now raise over $1 million for neuroblastoma research.  Help us on our second million.  Please contact Ray Asher at 312-322-0001 or FFSRSVP@aol.com for more information.
