Richard and Diane Nares founded ENF in 2003 after their son Emilio lost his brave battle with cancer at only five years old. Since then, ENF has provided families in San Diego and across the county with resources and support. Their flagship Ride With Emilio transportation program provides free rides to and from the hospital to ensure that no child misses a life-saving cancer treatment due to lack of transportation. Other services include Emilio’s Loving Tabs shirts, a nutritional snack bag program, a family resource center, therapeutic knitting classes, and end of life child and family care.
Tickets cost $145 per person or $1,000 for a group of ten people. For more details about the event and to RSVP, visit www.enfhope.org/news-events/. To learn more about the Emilio Nares Foundation, visit www.enfhope.org.
