About:
A powerful act of generosity is helping Corey’s Promise continue its mission of supporting families facing pediatric cancer.
Charlie Macaluso, a courageous young cancer survivor, was recently recognized by the Clark Gillies Foundation. In a remarkable act of kindness, Charlie and his family chose to pay that generosity forward with a $5,000 donation to Corey’s Promise.
The gift will help Corey’s Promise continue providing support to families navigating pediatric cancer while carrying forward the organization’s mission of helping others in Corey’s name.
Charlie’s story is one of courage, strength, and compassion. After facing his own battle with cancer, he and his family chose to use this moment to make a difference for other children and families going through similar challenges.
Their generosity is a meaningful reminder of the impact that can come from paying it forward.
Corey’s Promise shared its heartfelt gratitude to Charlie and the entire Macaluso Family, recognizing not only the significance of the donation, but also the kindness and spirit behind it.
Through this generous gift, Charlie is helping ensure that more families receive support, hope, and care during some of their most difficult moments.
