After so many people were good to us, we want to give back. Joseph's Jam Sesh is an afternoon of fun, food, music and drinks to celebrate all the wonderful groups who helped our family bring Joseph home. In January of 2018, a random blood clot caused Joseph's amniotic sack to rupture. He was born weighing just 1 pound, 8 ounces. Joseph is now a 17 month old happy, chubby and funny little boy who has a tracheostomy and breathes with the assistance of a ventilator. We hope to wean off that ventilator as the year progresses but the groups that helped our family get him safely home from the hospital certainly deserve some recognition.
Join us Saturday, October 12, 2019 from 3 to 7 PM at Junction LBNY for an open bar and buffet ($75/person) where you will get to hear some amazing music by Dennis Kelly & The Dippers, Dave Kellan, as well as a few acts yet to be named!
The group that this specific site will donate to is The Katie McBride Foundation (https://www.katiemcbridefoundation.org/). Although our live event will donate to several charities we chose the Katie McBride Foundation for this donation website for two reasons:
1. We had to choose one non-profit to have online donations be submitted to
2. The Katie McBride Foundation supports other non-profits like the Ronald McDonald House as well as local families in need, local charities, and scholarships.
All of the groups that helped us, including the Katie McBride Foundation, played an integral role in saving Joseph's life, keeping our family housed in Philadelphia, preparing our home for his arrival in 2019 and allowing us to always have a shoulder to lean on. We could not be more grateful. There are so many people and groups to thank, I wish we could acknowledge everyone. Please know that everything everyone has done to help Joseph, even down to the smallest prayer, has truly touched our whole family.
HUGE thanks to Dennis Kelly, who has helped us put this event together and will be serenading us with some serious tunes during the afternoon.
