CALLING ADULT CANCER SURVIVORS/CANCER FIGHTERS!

Calling Adult Survivors / Cancer Fighters for LIGHT the WHITE HOUSE GOLD campaign!

We are consistently amazed by how much support we get from adults who have fought cancer, and say, “kids should never have to go through this.” We want to show the White House that raising awareness for kids’ cancer isn’t just important to the parents’ of our littlest cancer fighters – it is important to ALL OF US.

How you can help:

Adult Survivors / Cancer Fighters – take a picture of yourself holding a sign template (below).
You can hand-write the sign on poster board or have it printed. Make sure it’s large enough to read.
Follow the template and keep it simple! We want the message to be loud, strong & clear.
We will post the pictures on social media, and make a slideshow from the pictures. By sending us your picture, you are consenting to the dissemination of your photo.
Send the photos to Rebecca@RonanThompson.org by MONDAY, January 28, midnight EST. (We wish we had more time, but the petition window ends on February 6.)

THANK YOU!
The Ronan Thompson Foundation

I’m [NAME]. I am a [type] cancer survivor. But I’m asking you to shine a light on pediatric cancer, the #1 killer of our kids. Mr. President, light the White House GOLD this September.

I’m Laura. I am a 25-year-old Hodgkin’s Lymphoma cancer
survivor, and I will definitely do this to support Ronan’s cause! I
also ordered a “Loving Ro Was Red” shirt for Valentine’s Day and
can’t wait for it to come in!

The White House going gold would be epic. And if they say
no, that’s going to piss a lot of people off and there will be an
uproar. They will end up having to do it. I know this is going to
be accomplished. You have 1000’s of supporters that are all rooting
for your cause. One little thing though, car crashes is the number
one killer of children.

You got this Maya! And Ronan is cheering you on. It could
NOT fail with his love behind it too. Just watch the signatures
pour in. I know you will still be crying, but I hope it’s tears of
hope and joy.

I lost both my grandpa’s to cancer and had several friends die from cancer. My father-in-law died at 58 from cancer and his wifes dad died of cancer. I had a classmate die from cancer in school and another friend survive child cancer. She is still my good friend to this day.

is there a template for people who arent survivors of cancer or currently fighting cancer? i’m a young adult whose father (#1 favorite person in the world, my best friend) was killed by cancer sixteen months ago. pediatric cancer has become my favorite cause because even though i miss my dad an incredible amount (/am angry at the world/think it’s so unfair/dont think he should have had to die), i think i am one of the luckiest people i know overall. i had a great dad, best friend, and life with him for 25 years. kids like ronan don’t even get that chance.
