Meet  the  2021  GVL THRIVE  Recipients

Picture


​INDY Foundation is excited to announce a partnership with Grand View Lodge and their owners benefitting Minnesota's cancer warriors. GVL Thrive was an idea that was born after cancer Thriver Stephanie Kennelly found healing and comfort in her stay at Grand View Lodge in Nisswa, MN. We are so excited and honored to be partnering and creating a new program that will allow cancer warriors and their families to rest, relax and rejuvenate at the lodge. ​Nominations have closed for 2021 but watch for it to reopen in 2022.

Since 2018, INDY has honored 84 Warriors. Take a look at where our Warriors come from!

WARRIOR: Dave Faust

Meet our September Warrior ~ Dave Faust
Affectionately known as "Cowboy Dave" due to the wearing of his signature cowboy hat. He is always smiling an encouraging others. This past year he was diagnosed with lung cancer and also had a lump on his thyroid, both of which have been treated at the Mayo clinic. He had part of his lung removed about a month ago. Dave has approached this head on and has asked for prayers and conversation.

 LITTLE WARRIOR: brayden gildea

On Thursday May 7, 2020, just a week before his 14th birthday, Ours lives changed forever.. Here is Brayden's story...
At the beginning of March, Brayden started complaining of left knee pain from what he thought was an injury he sustained during phy-ed. This pain worried him as baseball season was right around the corner, and he wasn't quite sure how he was going to be able to play ball. It hurt to walk, and was impossible to kneel down. It seemed that no matter what he tried, the pain would not go away.​..

WHO WE ARE.

INDY is a Minnesota-based non-profit organization dedicated to giving support to real-life Warriors in the midst of their cancer battle. Every month we highlight two Minnesotan Warriors - 1 Little INDY warrior and 1 INDY warrior (18+). Through online sales, donations and in-store retailers, the honoree will receive a portion of all profits during their specified month. In addition we provide the Warrior and their family with official INDY Warrior gear, a check and we highlight their journey through a video - which you can find on our site. Do you have a Warrior in your life? Nominate them here.
