Front Row Foundation

JR is the kind of guy you fall in love with the minute you begin your conversation with him. He is passionate, fun and lives his life in the front row! When JR’s cousin Mike reached out to our Foundation in the spring of 2007, he informed us that JR was battling cancer and he wanted to create an amazing night for his cousin. It wasn’t long before Neicey Apollo and Tatyana Kalinichenko, two outstanding Front Row Volunteers, went to work creating a night that JR would never forget. They began with a delicious dinner at Spasso’s Italian Restaurant in Philadelphia and of course, a fun filled night with his favorite singer Stevie Nicks!

Heather is an amazing woman. Diagnosed with cancer in August of 2006, she and her family have successfully been fighting this horrible disease. After her husband Fred let us know how much she loved the Eagles, the Front Row staff went into high gear to create a day with her two amazing boys Nick and Chris, sister Marlies and loving husband Fred. After securing the best seats available in Lincoln Financial Field, it was good luck to say that least that the day would turn out to be the highest scoring Eagles game in franchise history.

Glenna is a strong and passionate 24 year old who has been diagnosed with Stage IV Melanoma. She has undergone many treatments and spent countless hours in and out of hospitals, but on March 30, 2007 she was given the opportunity to put all that behind her for an “Front Row” evening with her friends. It all began when the black stretched limo arrived to pick up Glenna and six of her best friends at 5:45pm. The group was whisked off to enjoy a fabulous meal in the gorgeous city of Boston. Glenna and her friends reminisced about all the great times they had together as they laughed the evening away; Glenna was beaming.
