About us

Our goal is to honor the memory of a courageous little boy who lost his battle to brain cancer in August, 2011 at the age of six. John truly was a superhero and all proceeds from our event go to the John Shapiro Superheroes Foundation and will benefit local families with children battling cancer.

Fulfilling Wishes

June 7, 2018

Hello Mrs. Shapiro,

Please accept my belated thank you for the financial contribution from your organization. Unfortunately, we lost our son this April after a long 4 year battle. Yet, I am happy to say the holiday donation helped turn our Christmas into a wonderful day where we filled Colin’s every wish!!! We could not have asked for a better last Christmas with our son and John Shapiro Superheroes was pivotal in making that happen. Thanks, so very much.

Attached is a picture of our sweet boy on Christmas Day.

Sincerely and with thanks,

Melissa

Over the years, you have kept John’s spirit alive, through holding dress down days, celebrating memorial masses, and holding us in your prayers.  Thank you SHS for being John’s safe haven & our incredible race day host 🙏🏼
