Today’s Helping Hero is a local investment company who will have a big impact on the lives of our childhood cancer heroes. RiverFront Investment Group announced Connor’s Heroes as their 2021 Charitable Giving Partner. The partnership includes a $25,000 donation and a commitment to volunteerism throughout 2021.
In a press release announcing the grant, Kaetlin Collins, RiverFront’s Charitable Giving Committee Chair, said “During the COVID-19 Pandemic we were reminded of the impact RiverFront can make in our local communities. When looking for a 2021 partner, our associates turned to those non-profits that had found ways to adapt in 2020 to continue to serve those in need. The partnership with Connor’s Heroes was exciting because it gave us the opportunity to volunteer in a variety of ways both virtually and in person. We are so excited to be working with Connor’s Heroes and are looking forward to helping local families during their childhood cancer journey.”

Connor’s Heroes can thank our caring families for making this grant possible. Erin asked families to share testimonials and photos of how a Connor’s Heroes Bag and Backpack helped their child at the initial days of treatment. Celia included the faces and stories of our brave childhood cancer heroes in her presentation. Obviously, their appreciation moved the employees of RiverFront.
