PUNT Pediatric Cancer Collaborative

Our P.U.N.T. Ambassador Council—affectionately known as “The PAC”-- is an amazing group of young professionals who share their time, talent and leadership to help make our mission matter! Thanks to Prova at Fountain Plaza Downtown Buffalo for hosting a happy hour fundraiser with our PAC this evening!💛🫶🏻🎗️💚

We were honored to be part of Dawson Knox’s ProCamp this weekend at Nazareth University! 🏈💙❤️🙌

It was great to see #88 in action doing what comes so naturally: encouraging, lifting up, and showing firsthand what it means to lead and play with character and heart.

We’re grateful to be included in a day that was all about teamwork and learning inspired by a cherished P.U.N.T. teammate who gives so much to our game plan to make a meaningful difference for kids and families facing pediatric cancer.🎗️

Some people don’t just lead organizations; they build spaces of care, compassion, and hope that ripple through an entire community. Gwen is one of those people. 🫶🏻

At P.U.N.T. Pediatric Cancer Collaborative, her leadership is rooted in deep empathy and an unwavering commitment to supporting children and families facing pediatric cancer. Through her work founding and leading Western New York Compassion Connection, she creates space for grieving children and families navigating unimaginable loss.

If you’ve spent any time with Gwen, you know she is a natural healer in the truest sense. She listens intently, meets people exactly where they are, and brings a light into the room that people don’t forget. There’s a warmth and humanity in the way she connects that makes others feel truly seen and cared for.

Her leadership is powerful not because it is loud, but because it is deeply felt. She inspires everyone around her through both what she builds and who she is.

Today, we’re so grateful to celebrate her. Happy birthday, Gwen. 💛🍎💙🩵

“I’ve only seen one thing more relentless than cancer. Mothers.” 💛
