Sunshine Garage Sale 2006

In November 2006, Andrea Peterson held a garage sale to clean out her samples from her toy company, Sunshine Sales. With the help of her three sons, Jack, Mitchell and Joe, the sale was very successful. After making a generous monetary contribution to the Foundation, she also donated her leftover toys to the children at UCSF!

Worldwide Candle Lighting Ceremony

Every year on the second Sunday in December there is a "Worldwide Candle Lighting Ceremony" to honor all children who have died. As candles are lit at 7p.m. in each time zone around the world, hundreds of thousands of people create a wave of light, commemorating and honoring children in a way that transcends cultural, ethnic, religious, and political boundaries. Please join us on this second Sunday of December at 7 p.m. and light a candle for Quincy and all the other children who left this world too soon.

Friends of Quincy's Lemonade Stand 2006

"When life gives you lemons, make lemonade" The Neach Family of Alamo remembered the words Quincy lived by. Over the summer, Shannon Neach and her four children, J.T., Molly, Holden, and Tatum set up a lemonade stand on the Iron Horse Trail in Alamo. In just one afternoon they were able to make a very generous donation to the Quincy Lee Foundation. J.T. and Quincy had attended Kindergarten together.

A Self-less Birthday for Gavin Foltz

Turning 13 is a very big birthday. Gavin displayed a kindness beyond his years when he celebrated his birthday and along with his family, hosted a party with 70 of his closest friends! When asked as to what he would like for his birthday, he said that in lieu of gifts, he would like donations to be made to the Quincy Lee Foundation. Needless to say, we are very touched by the generosity of Gavin and his family.

The First Quincy Lee Foundation Fundraiser 2005

During the week of November14-18, 2005, Quincy's elementary school, Rancho Romero held its annual scholastic Book Faire.

A display was set up near the check out and we were happy to report that close to $400 was raised during the week. Thank you Rancho Romero families!
