About This Video Project
The Daniela Conte Foundation hired us to produce a recap video for their 2nd Annual Butterfly Gala at Crest Hollow Country Club. There were raffles, a photo booth, live music, dinner, desserts and dancing. They also had a local doctor as a guest speaker. DCF is a tribute to Daniela and her courageous battle with a rare cancer and it stands as a beacon of hope for families facing similar challenges. Their mission is to provide financial support to families of children diagnosed with cancer, raise awareness of pediatric cancer, emphasizing its significance and the need for resources and attention, and funding research specifically targeted at Rhabdomyosarcoma, with a unique interest in Embryonal Rhabdomyosarcoma (ERMS). These objectives underscore the foundation’s dedication to assisting families in their fight against pediatric cancer and their quest for a cure, particularly in the realm of Rhabdomyosarcoma.

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you all for joining me tonight for the second annual Butterfly Gala, and thank you for your support of the Daniela Conte Foundation. Anthony and I started the Daniela Conte Foundation to honor the memory of our daughter who passed away after a hard-fought four-year battle with a rare form of childhood cancer. Today, we have transformed our grief into something that honors Daniela’s life, a powerful resource for cancer families who are now going through the same heart-wrenching and terrifying journey we once traveled. I know that Daniela is smiling and looking down at us right now, and so proud of the work that we are doing in her name. The message that Daniela’s existence wrote on the wall of life is that we all are meant to live out loud. She showed me what it’s truly meant to never be afraid of who you are, to always stand firm in your purpose, and to be unapologetically authentic. It’s really stories like Daniela’s that has really inspired us to commit our professions to trying to bring new medicines for these diseases. So I just want to thank you all again for coming out, supporting this event, and supporting us in this mission. Thank you. From the bottom of my heart, and from the DCF team, thank you for all who have supported the Daniela Conte Foundation for the last two years. They say that one child can change the world, so thank you for believing that we can change the world to allow them that chance.
