Fundraiser to Be Held at Fort Ham for Local Student
Emily Mitchell, a 10-year-old girl, with a hopeful smile and a bright demeanor who lives at Fort Hamilton, is trying to win her battle with fanconi anemia, and with your help, there’s a chance.
On September 21, the Fort Hamilton Community Spouses Foundation and the Fanconi Anemia Research Foundation (FARF) will be hosting a casino night at the Fort Hamilton Community Club, and their mission is to save Emily’s life.
Fanconi anemia is a rare disease that weakens the DNA, resulting in the growth of tumors and an increase risk of developing cancer.
