Creating unforgettable moments for critically ill young adults through the power of sports.
Our mission is to support young adults, ages 18 to 24, who are in active treatment for life-threatening conditions and have aged out of traditional wish-granting programs like Make-A-Wish®. At 18, support drops off. But the fear, isolation, and grueling treatment don’t. These young adults often face it all without the joy, surprise, or emotional lift younger patients receive. There’s a gap. We’re here to close it.
Tailored experiences based on the fan’s favorite team.
Team merch, custom gifts, and emotional support.
Focused on young adults who age out of traditional wish programs.
Anthony Matise was a son, a brother, a teammate, and a devoted fan. He faced leukemia with quiet strength and never stopped rooting for the Eagles, the Phillies, and NC State. This foundation exists to honor his legacy by passing that same joy, resilience, and love for the game to others who need it most.
Your gift helps us create unforgettable game-day moments for young adults facing life-threatening illnesses. At an age when support too often disappears, you can show them they’re not alone.
