Timothy P. Roberts "Reeling in a Dream" Fund
The Timothy P. Roberts "Reeling in a Dream" Fund was founded by family and friends following Tim's death in 2005 at the age of 22. Throughout his struggle with esophageal cancer, Tim showed amazing compassion for fellow cancer-stricken young adults, even as he was among the most ill.
His desire was to provide other patients, aged 18-30, with little things that would make a big difference toward making their lives fun, easier and satisfying, even in the face of their illness. He hoped to fulfill dreams and wishes that could not be granted within the scope of traditional medical care to the young adult patient.
While Tim did not see his dream realized, the Fund's goal is to fulfill his dream, and more importantly, the dreams of others, in loving memory of Tim's compassion.
The Fund is supported by these fundraising events:
