Jaclyn and Denis Murphy will talk about Jaclyn's successful fight against Medulloblastoma, and how a gesture from the Women's Lacrosse team from Northwestern led to the Friends of Jaclyn Foundation and its Adopt A Child program.

Jaclyn Murphy was diagnosed with Medulloblastoma when she was 9 years old. During her treatment, the Women's Lacrosse Team from Northwestern University found out about what Jaclyn was going through, and "Adopted" her as a team member. This act of kindness proved to be a special one for both Jaclyn and Northwestern, so much so that Jaclyn's father Denis and the Murphy family started the Friends Of Jaclyn Foundation. The central theme of this Foundation centers around its Adopt A Child Program, in which colleges and high schools around the country "Adopt" a Pediatric Cancer patient and make them a team member. This foundation was started in 2005 and is nearing 1000 patients that have been adopted with many more to join them in the future.Jaclyn is now 27 years old and is able to live a life of good health as she and her dad give so much back to kids who need it the most.
