The Cortney Ciccarelli Wish Foundation has embarked upon a journey to help bone marrow transplant patients. To date we have assisted 65 patients. Our reach out goal is to assist 200 patients annually! Our organization is run entirely on donations. We have no employees, only dedicated volunteers who wonderfully donate their time and services.
The Cortney Ciccarelli Wish Foundation's sole purpose is helping allogeneic bone marrow transplant patients, at City of Hope Hospital in Duarte, California. We are the first foundation to focus entirely on aiding adult bone marrow transplant patients and their families. Our mission is to relieve stress for the patient so all of their energy can be focused on healing.
The Cortney Ciccarelli Wish Foundation was established in 2004 by Cortney Ciccarelli. While suffering from leukemia, she had to divert much of her energy to worrying about medical bills and finances, rather than fighting her disease. Not wanting anyone else to experience the same struggle, Cortney started the foundation to help alleviate the financial and emotional burdens for other bone marrow transplant recipients. Sadly, Cortney lost her battle, but we continue the mission in her honor.
The Cortney Ciccarelli Wish Foundation is a 501 (c) (3) organization. All donations are tax deductible to the extent allowable by law.
