"Making Memories" Event Wish Anthony (Philadelphia, PA)

On Friday, April 5, 2019 the Forever Moriah Foundation hosted a “PJ Mask” themed celebration for Making Memories recipient Anthony Meo at The Pike in Philadelphia, PA.

On Friday, April 5, 2019 the Forever Moriah Foundation hosted a “PJ Mask” themed celebration for Making Memories recipient Anthony Meo at The Pike in Philadelphia, PA. “The energy at Anthony’s party was amazing. The atmosphere was filled with so much love and support for Anthony and his family,” said Sharday Richardson, Forever Moriah founder.

In 2018, 3-year-old Anthony was diagnosed with DIPG, an inoperable form of pediatric brain cancer.

“It’s amazing. I mean, you kind of realize when you go through something like this that other people have gone through things to come out on the other side and make a difference,” said Anthony’s mother, Kelsey Fisher.

Dozens of friends and family gathered in superhero fashion; some came donning capes of their own while others were presented with them upon arrival. The Forever Moriah Foundation will be “Making Memories” all throughout the Mid-Atlantic throughout the year, with the Days of Joy tour.
