 Thanks for visiting!  Let me start off by telling you the refreshing story of how this organization got its name. The organization is set up to raise funds for Pediatric Cancer Research which is great in and of its self, but after hearing the story behind the birth of this organization I thought it was important to share with you right off the bat. The family of a 27 month old little girl named Kayla Blair, was devastated by her diagnosis of a rare form of Brain Cancer that ultimately led to her untimely death. After some time had passed for the family to heal they wanted to give back and continue by putting at least half the effort in the battle against cancer as Kayla did. So they decided to start an organization that would allow them to do just that. When it came time to start thinking of names they were baffled by the concept but were able to rule out a personal name like the "Kayla Blair Memorial Fund" since their ultimate goal was to help numerous families who were stricken by this disease. They wanted something that was personally meaningful to remind them of why they were doing this and yet relative to everyone. The first thing that came to mind was her love of Tinker Bell. Strangely enough her aunt, Briana Schechter (co-founder), always sang her a special song to calm her, even as a baby before she was able to have her own opinions or preferences. And if you haven't guessed it yet the song was "The second Star to the Right" the theme song of Peter Pan and Peter Pan Return to Neverland. After mentioning the name they just knew from that point on that it would be the perfect name for their organization to help fight back for children who have lost their battle to cancer and raise funds for research institutes to continue their lives work of finding a cure for these terminally ill diseases. Please follow along with their journey and support them in any way that you can. Whether it be emotionally, physically or financially every little bit is greatly appreciated. Also, keep an eye on the events page for upcoming events that they are doing and participate, donate or volunteer when ever you can. Thank you very much for visiting our website!
