Ayodele Family Fundraising
Meet the Ayodele Family:
Without question, Ade Ayodele lived an exemplary life and a made an everlasting impact in his 31 years. A beloved son, brother, fiancé, uncle, nephew, colleague and friend, Ade made sure everyone in his orbit felt secure, supported and connected. Today, his family continues his passion for giving back by creating a lasting legacy for Ade at the V Foundation for Cancer Research.
When we think of Ade, friends and family say ‘consistent’ is the word that springs to mind; Ade was exceptionally consistent in his career, relationships, faith, health and wellness. He worked to have a positive impact in his community and was especially interested in helping young Black men.
The Ayodele family has set out to raise $20,000 annually to support the Stuart Scott Memorial Cancer Research Fund, a special fund dedicated to improving outcomes for Blacks and other minorities disproportionately affected by cancer. Will you join the Ayodele family and support game-changing cancer research?
Our goal: end cancer disparities. Your donation and support to the Stuart Scott Memorial Cancer Research Fund will help drive vital research dedicated to ending cancer disparities and support research projects led by underrepresented scientists. Together, we can make a difference.
“We chose the V Foundation because it is more than a cancer charity; it is a community which embodies the values of our family,” said the Ayodele family.
