25 FUCKING YEARS!!!
We’ve come a long way, with so much hope given to our CF fighters. Come celebrate with us, and if you can bring your donation, too. Cash donations get doubled (sorry, Aa is not a 501c, so cash donations are not tax deductible).
Want your donation to be tax deductible, then make checks out to CFF, or donate online to anyone of our angels raising funds, here: https://fundraise.cff.org/DSMGS2026/andreasangels
Thank you! 💙🩵💛
