Our OAAT NORTH chapter encompasses the northern states from Montana to Michigan! This chapter is building a geographic community of families with kids battling life-threatening illnesses and we welcome new youngsters with powerful stories and DREAMS every day. Check out our current and past campaigns below to support their DREAMS!
Finley is a brave 5-year-old from Neenah, Wisconsin, whose world was turned upside down just days before Christmas in 2022. What began as a few unusual symptoms quickly spiraled into a diagnosis of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, shattering their sense of normal.
In an instant, Finley’s life became endless hospital visits, grueling chemotherapy, and the kind of exhaustion that no child or parent should ever endure.
Yet, through it all, Finley has never lost his spark. He smiles, he dreams, and he holds onto the things that bring him joy, like his love for sports and adventure.
But behind the smiles, there’s a family that has sacrificed everything. They’ve endured sleepless nights, endless worry, and heartache as they watch their son fight the hardest battle of his young life.
After all they've been through, Finley and his family deserve more than just survival. They deserve the chance to make memories beyond hospital walls.
We’re on a mission to raise $5,000 to send Finley and his family to Disney World and Give Kids The World where they can create moments of joy, adventure, and healing. This is their chance to feel the magic and joy of childhood again.
