The event itself is simple. Parents & Children donate $5.00. You then walk into a large tent and go to as many different ice cream stations as you wish. Taste as much ice cream as you want and have fun. Once you leave, there is no re-entry.

100% of the net proceeds goes to fighting pediatric leukemia. ALL the monies from our Ice Cream event have been donated to fund Research into Pediatic Leukemia at The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia Oncology Division. Doctors and scientist are using these funds to help them look at the abnormality of chromosomes and how it effects leukemia, especially AML which is it's most deadly form, and the type that Josh had.
