We have been sitting on some Carnegie Science Center tickets for a while now, and we are happy to say a few just found a home with Amber Mardis! Amber, a 10-year old Johnstown, PA, is a medal winning figure skater and recently underwent surgery on her brain after she was diagnosed with a grade 4 brain tumor. Amber is currently undergoing six weeks of chemotherapy and radiation at Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh, approximately 75 miles from her home. We learned about Amber's love for science and wanted to give her something that shows that the community around her is rooting for her. Hats off to Amber!
There are some fundraisers coming up where you can help Amber, the soonest being on August 25th and the second on September 16th. On the 25th, There will be a basket party and band fundraiser for Amber at Chillies Pub (900 Bedford St. Johnstown,PA.) Any donations, baskets or just showing up will be greatly appreciated. There will be live bands, DJ's, food and entertainment all day from 1 PM until approximately 12 AM.
Let's continue being the kind of community that helps one another out!
You can send Amber cards of well wishes, care packages or anything in between and help her:
