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.

A Brighter Holiday for Julia

December 29, 2025

I am the mother of a beautiful little girl named Julia! Julia was diagnosed with B-cell ALL back in March of this year. It has been a long year of tough treatments. I have had to take a step back from work to care for her. Thank you from the bottom of our heart for your very generous gift! This gift helped us purchase Christmas gifts for Julia and other family members. I truly cannot thank you enough for how much your gift helped us this holiday season! We are beyond blessed that organizations like you exist!

Thank you!
Shannon and William
