Colby’s Dream Day as a CFA Employee

Colby is a 13-year-old rockstar that has been battling T-Cell ALL for almost three years.

When connecting with his family and finding areas of support, we learned of Colby’s deep love for CFA, their nuggets, and being a future employee. Seeing how much joy this institution brought them, we partnered with our annual partner- CFA Madison Ave- to make his dream come true!

With the Cow making an appearance, Colby and his family enjoying lunch at the restaurant, and Colby getting his own CFA swag basket- Colby had a chance to work at his favorite restaurant in his own uniform shirt and name tag provided by the CFA team!

With Colby fulfilling his dream role of being an honorary Hospitality Professional, mom said that “Our Chick fil-A experience was priceless. Colby has told all his family and friends and said it was one of the best days of his life! It wouldn’t have happened without two very Kindhearted people like you both! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!”

While we aim to bring moments of joy, memories, and respite, our overarching goal is to foster a childhood cancer community brimming with love, support, and meaningful connections. We aspire to create a space where each family member feels heard, understood, and connected to others navigating similar experiences, reminding them that they are not alone in this journey.

Thank you, Chick-fil-A Madison Ave, for providing a haven for this family and instilling hope amidst their adversity.

Words cannot adequately convey the profound impact of this incredible opportunity in fulfilling Colby’s dream.

We eagerly anticipate future collaborations to spread love and support in other areas!!!
