Cade’s Cause

Concussion & CTE Awareness

Thank you to everyone who joined us on June 28, 2026 for Cade’s Celebration of Life and the inaugural Cade’s Cause

Together we raised $37,538 (and counting!) to advance research, expand support, and protect the future of brain health

Your presence, support, the donations, stories people shared about Cade let our family feel overwhelming love and exactly what we needed in this journey of life without Cade.

To everyone to showed up, gave, and celebrated him with us — THANK YOU, from the bottom of our hearts.
