The MISSION of the Wicklund Warriors, Inc. is to provide financial and other assistance to families clinically diagnosed with a blood cancer in the 518.
John & Elissa were on the road to Bern to meet the Sisson family. Their son, Jody, was diagnosed with AML in August, right before the start of 8th grade. Thank you to the Petersen Benson Group of Merrill Lynch and Joe Carr Wines for making this tote possible.
West we go to Amsterdam to visit Wilviely. She's a 2020 stemcell transplant recipient for AML. Hope our tote of gift cards and comfort items brings a smile during her quarantine. Thank you to Shaker Logistic & Dan Cunningham Media that made this possible. #12daysofgiving
Roadtrip to Cobbleskil to meet the Masse family! Little Brant was in treatment awaiting a stemcell transplant for AML at Boston Children's with Dad. So, Elissa Freyer and John Petersen, brought a tote of gift cards and goodies to mom, Jessica and big brother, Charlie to share.
We are crossing-crossing the Capital District delivering totes filled with joy to 12 fortunate families. We couldnโt do it without our wonderful sponsors. @ Albany, New York https://t.co/CFqz11oJqI

Giving out more Price Chopper gift cards delivered to Zach and Nancy Swart. Zach is now almost 19, a college student and an ALL, *CAR T-cell recipient. Which makes him pretty amazing. His Mom, Nancy is also quite a talented jazz singer and school nurse. #CRComeback#bloodcancer
