Hope For James

The young boy is battling stage-four Neuroblastoma, a common form of cancer with approximately 50 percent of cases affecting children three years of age and younger. Dine at the 5303 Sunrise Boulevard  and present the Hope 4 James flyer or mention Hope 4 James, and 15 percent of the bill will be donated to the Lindgren family. Visit the website, find Hope For James on Facebook or Chili's Folsom's FB page. Stop by between 11 a.m. and 10 p.m. to help out the cause.
