This year we served as a float sponsor for the Guild for Exceptional Children in the 3rd Avenue St. Patrick’s Day Parade. We are proud to stand alongside an organization that provides supportive services to those living with developmental disabilities.
Our Winter Wonderland event featured festive treats (hot cocoa, s’mores, hot pretzels, fried Oreos, zeppoles etc.), photo ops with Mr. & Mrs. Claus, horse and buggy rides and more! As a thank you to the community for their support during a successful second year, all holiday themed activities were offered for free. We can’t wait to meet even more local families next year!
We celebrated Christian’s favorite holiday with over 200+ guests by dancing the night away at Dyker Beach Golf Course! We were also joined by the Foundation’s first family of recipients, who received a life-changing contribution. All proceeds collected were used towards our mission of providing support and assistance in the fields of education, health, & sports to children & families that may be distressed.

The Max Day of Giving was a day of family fun filled with music, food and activities for all ages! Through our donor’s generous support over $29,000 was raised. These funds will enable us to provide tuition assistance to a young child who was recently displaced from the Ukraine due to war. This event would not have been possible without the generosity from our partners – the Max Challenge of Bay Ridge, Aunt Butchies, DJ John and Sarrica Physical Therapy!

Thank you to all those who helped make our Drag Queen Bingo a huge success! We were pleased to present two recipients, Frankie and Drew, with full financial support for the special tools needed to succeed in college. We believe that every student, despite a disability, should receive equal access to an education.

Maimonides Park and the Brooklyn Cyclones graciously hosted our first night out at the ballpark! More than two sold out sections of family and friends joined us in dedicating Seat No 9 of section 11, in memory of Christian.

The Max Challenge of Bay Ridge decided to host their annual fundraiser in honor of Christian. Christian’s passion for fitness included being part of this program which not only helps one physically but also mentally.
