West Haverstraw Food Truck & Music Fest Sept. 16th at Peck’s Pond Park!

Published

Haverstraw, NY – The Town of Haverstraw was founded in 1666, but the area has been known as “Haverstroo” on Dutch maps since as early as 1616.
In 1609 Henry Hudson, an Englishman employed by the Dutch East India Company, sailed his ship, the Half Moon, up the river that would bear his name in a vain search for the legendary Northwest passage. He sailed as far as what is now Albany and on the return trip the Half Moon anchored in what is now Haverstraw Bay, the widest point in the river. The name of Haverstraw is one of the oldest in the geography of North America. The location of Haverstraw was important to the defense of the colonies in the Revolutionary War because of its place on the banks of the Hudson, the main artery of trade between New York City and Albany and the dividing line between New England and other colonies.

GoFundMe Created for Clarkstown 2-Year-Old Courageously Battling Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG) – a Rare Pediatric Brain Cancer

GoFundMe reads – In the face of unimaginable odds, we come to you with heavy hearts and a plea for support. Our dear friends Tori & Rob are navigating a heartbreaking journey as their beautiful 2-year-old daughter, Lily, courageously battles Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG). The gravity of this rare and aggressive pediatric brain cancer was compounded by the devastating news that Lily has been given just 6-9 months to live.

Yet, in the midst of this painful reality, Lily continues to defy expectations with a spirit that shines brighter than the darkest prognosis. Her laughter, resilience, and boundless love have become a beacon of hope for everyone touched by her story.

We are reaching out to you today to ask for your support in the most challenging fight of Lily’s young life. The financial burden of medical treatments, experimental therapies, and end-of-life care is overwhelming for Tori & Rob. We have created a GoFundMe campaign to alleviate this burden and ensure that Lily receives the best possible care during her remaining time with us.
Your contribution, no matter the size, will make a significant impact on Lily’s quality of life, enabling Tori & Rob to focus on creating lasting memories and providing comfort for their precious daughter. Additionally, we ask that you share this campaign with your network, helping us reach compassionate hearts who may be willing to join us in this fight.
Let us rally together to show Lily, Tori, Rob & Danny, and all those affected by DIPG that they are not alone. Your generosity and kindness will make a meaningful difference during this incredibly challenging time.
Thank you for opening your hearts to Lily’s story and for standing with us as we fight against DIPG, refusing to accept its grim prognosis.
With heartfelt gratitude,

Brittany Massaro Farkas
