Stay Strong Christmas

Christmas is a time for spending with family and friends. Whether it’s decorating the Christmas tree, wrapping the presents, cooking the dinner or watching Christmas TV – it’s a day when people want to be at home surrounded by their loved ones. For children fighting cancer or other life-threatening illnesses, often times they miss holidays, birthdays and other special occasions.

It was Christmas 2020. Noah Adams, the Founder of Stay Strong Foundation, Inc would be spending his first Christmas away from home. Unfortunately, just 5 months prior, Noah was diagnosed with Ewing Sarcoma, a rare bone cancer which made him an amputee at the age of 17. Even though Noah was dealing with his own chemotherapy, and a new amputation at this time, Noah was passionate about children in the same fight for their lives. He knew this first hand how it was to be away from family and he knew he wanted to make a difference. Through the support of his growing online community, over 1200 toys & gifts were donated to the pediatric patients at University Hospital, San Antonio.

We continue that effort today.
