About Us
Building a community of sports and entertainment fans to deliver hope, opportunity and support to families with seriously ill children.
The Fans Across America® Charitable Foundation is a 501 (c) (3) tax-exempt organization dedicated to helping families with seriously ill children better face the financial burden that comes with a life-altering diagnosis so that they can focus on what really matters...their child.
First Families
In December 2007, the Fans Across America Charitable Foundation delivered assistance to its first two families. Leslie Rodriguez and Joshua Coppoth were both nine years old and had brain tumors. From surgery to radiation and chemotherapy treatments, these children endured far more suffering than any child should, and their families did everything they could to help them get well. Because of the generosity of the Fans Across America community, the Foundation was able to help relieve some of the financial burden these families faced as a result of the illness by assisting with their rent and other living expenses such as food and gas.
