#elliestrong forever foundation has a threefold mission..  

Helping families affected by cancer to
​"live on, follow their dreams"

As a family there are so many people over the 9 years of battling Ellie's brain tumor that gave us so much happiness and joy.  We want to pay it forward and in Ellie's own words help the families
​"Live on, and follow their dreams" ~ Ellie

Keeping Ellie's memory and spirit alive through Acts of Kindness

Ellie was a kind person who loved doing random acts of kindness.  A Random Act of Kindness or RAK is a selfless act performed  by a stranger or friend, for no reason other than to make people happy.
