Team MattyFresh

Why We Support St. Jude

We have formed Team MattyFresh in memory of my nephew, Matthew Klopfer who was tragically taken from us in a car accident on March 2, 2019.

Our mission is to help as many families as we can, not experience the horrific pain of losing a child in any manner.  This is why we made a commitment to St. Jude Children's Research Hosptial.  Please consider joining us as we walk in memory of our sweet Matthew.  

We plan to walk at Urbana District Park as we have for the past several years.  As always, thank you for your continued support.   

You can support by making a donation or joining our team! Can we count on your support?

When St. Jude opened in 1962, childhood cancer was considered incurable. Since then, treatments invented at St. Jude have helped push the overall childhood cancer survival rate from 20 percent to more than 80 percent.

And because St. Jude shares the breakthroughs it makes, every child saved at St. Jude means doctors and scientists worldwide can use that knowledge to save thousands more children.

Thank you for supporting us and the lifesaving work happening at St. Jude today. Let’s cure childhood cancer. Together.
