“This was like our second home. From the security guards to the seventh floor, everyone knows us. It’s welcoming. It’s comforting. We live 20 minutes away. I wouldn’t go anywhere else,” said Isaac’s mom, Trudi.

Meet Champion Kid Isaac. His story is one of the many incredible journeys of strength and resilience we encounter every day as we get kids back to being kids.

We’re proud to have been part of the 2026 The 11 Day Power Play Player Orientation and Awards Night 💙

It was an inspiring evening centered on making a meaningful impact in the fight against cancer. We were especially grateful to attend alongside Bryn and Dr. Kara Kelly, and to hear Bryn’s dad speak about the importance of the partnership between Golisano Children's Hospital of Buffalo and Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center.

Together, we’re strengthening support for the children and families we serve. We’re honored to be part of The 11 Day Power Play community and look forward to seeing its impact continue to grow.
