The Padraic Pearse Caffrey Cancer Fund envisions a world in which young adults with Esophageal Cancer will have an opportunity for treatment that will assist in a full recovery.

Dear Friends,

The Padraic Pearse Caffrey Cancer Fund is named and dedicated to the memory of our beloved Pearse from Landing, New Jersey, who at the tender age of 20 years old was diagnosed with esophageal cancer and fought it bravely until July 19th, 2003.  Pearse's love for life will be forever remembered by the people whose lives he touched.  The Padraic Pearse Caffrey Cancer Fund is committed to support research aimed at esophageal cancer, with the hope of finding a cure for cancer.
