PARSIPPANY — Friends, family, teachers, administrators and neighbors showed up at Applebee’s for a fundraiser to help Emma.
They enjoyed breakfast cooked by the staff at Applebee’s. The breakfast included pancakes, sausages, scrambled eggs and a beverage.
The group held a 50/50 drawing and Christine Maytida was the lucky winner and donated all the money back to the fundraiser.
The Parsippany PBA and Buffalo Wild Wings will be holding another fundraiser on Saturday, November 21 from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 a.m. For additional information please click here.
A wing-eating contest will be conducted at 2:00 p.m. The teams competing include Parsippany Police Officers, Parsippany Volunteer Ambulance Car 65, and the Parsippany Volunteer Fire District Six.
“Emma Marie Wyman is a happy, beautiful (one-year-old) baby girl undergoing at least one year’s worth of treatment at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia for a rare type of sarcoma. Her parents, AJ & Lindsey (Kmit) Wyman, who are lifelong residents of Parsippany, learned of Emma’s tumor in late May and have taken her to Philadelphia to be treated by internationally-recognized pediatric oncologists. As they await more in-depth results regarding the type of sarcoma Emma has and begin chemotherapy, AJ has begun to take time off from his job as a corrections officer, while Lindsey is on her unpaid summer break from teaching sixth grade social studies at Brooklawn Middle School. During this life-altering time, AJ and Lindsey will incur costs from medical to travel expenses, while keeping up with their regular monthly bills for their cars, home, etc.
Please know that even the smallest donation will go a long way to aid baby Emma and her loving parents during this incredibly difficult time. Thank you for your love, support, and above all, your prayers.”
