 The 2nd Annual Baby V. wiffle ball tourney

took place on July 13th, 2008 under beautiful sunny skies. 14 teams showed up to support our fundraising efforts in the field of rare tumor cancer research in the name of Baby V. (Vincenza)

The Baby V. Foundation would like to thank everyone who participated and donated their time to the event. We raised approx. $2,000 at this event and this had moved us within $7,000 of our first major milestone as a Foundation.  Continue...

About Us
The Baby V Foundation was established April, 2006, following our daughter, Vincenza’s, diagnosis of Hepatoblastoma. Our goal is to work with the Children’s Oncology Group (COG) to raise enough money to fund new research protocols in the area of Hepatoblastoma (HB).

Vincenza Marie graced our presence on July 14, 2004. In November, she began exhibiting “flu-like” symptoms. Multiple pediatrician and E/R visits yielded the same “viral” diagnosis. On April 10th, Vincenza’s abdomen distended and, although we knew something was drastically wrong, we were shocked when tests revealed a large mass. Many events transpired in the next few days, including the final diagnosis of HB, a rare form of liver cancer . Click here for more info

Share your stories of inspiration
The Baby V. Foundation would like to highlight your inspirational story. Typically we hear the news of a child who was unable to overcome the horrors of pediatric cancer. We would like to hear your family’s inspirational story of a child who has persevered through the battle.

Every child or family who has been affected by cancer has learned something that can benefit someone else. Share your story here and help make the dream a reality.
