About Megan
Megan Cooper was lost to leukemia at the age of 8 on January 29, 1993. While Megan was taken from us, her spirit lives on through all of the lives she touched before, during and after her battle. We honor Megan and all who have been lost to leukemia by raising funds to find a cure for this devastating disease. Please help us find a cure so other families do not have to suffer the loss of a loved one!
