The Circle of Friends experience begins with a four day Wisconsin winter trip that brings together 40 pediatric oncology patients from 9 U.S. Cities. They enjoy skiing, tubing, disco bowling and snowmobiling, along with discussing the latest fashion trends and the newest music to hit the charts. For many of the participants these new friendships offer encouragement and support as they navigate through their course of recovery. Every two years the group is reunited on a summer trip where new adventures await them. Jerry Wunsch, Brian Young, Rich Coady, Jared Tomich and Chris Kelsay join Grant in hosting these events.
The Foundation supports a number of events that have included: Kids Only Day at a Family Fun Center, Mom’s Spa day and a Dad’s gameday outing. Through the Foundation’s events, Grant and Melissa strive to provide the children as well as their parents with a relaxing break from the concerns of everyday life.
The Foundation donates four tickets for each home UNL Football game to pediatric oncology patients and their families so that they may enjoy the Husker experience. Each guest receives a t-shirt and a pre-game meal.
The Foundation actively supports various children’s organizations through financial and/or merchandise donations in Missouri, Nebraska and Illinois.
