Mikey / Via Robicelli's Tumblr
You know what's cool? Helping raise money for kids with cancer. You know what's NOT COOL? When random strangers come along and steal that money. Cupcake haven Robicelli's recently posted this account on their blog:
"This is Mikey. He’s the son of an old friend of Matt’s and the nephew of a friend of mine from high school. He is five years old, loves Sesame Street, the color orange, and football.
Mikey has cancer. He was diagnosed with an unidentifiable form that causes tumors to grow on his brain and spine, and although they’ve sent the pathology to everywhere from Memorial Sloan Kettering to Johns Hopkins, no one can figure out what the tumors are, or how to cure them."
Mikey's family has been working with an organization called St. Baldricks, which helps communities organize events to raise money to help kids with cancer. They're working on a fundraising drive to raise $20,000. Recently, some of that money was stolen:
“Natalie, our Hope is in the (h)Air treasurer, was on the other line. Her dad was doing a great thing today. He was standing outside (in Donagan Hills, SI) collecting donations in a jug for our event, he had bags of stuffed animals and was manning a ‘Take a Toy, Make a Donation’ table! The jug was labeled & had Mikey’s picture on it so everyone knew where the money was going.
