Dream-ing of White Sox

The Santa Barbara-based Dream Foundation received a hefty check from Major League Baseball’s Chicago White Sox when CEO Kisa Heyer and staffers flew to the Windy City to pick up the gift.

The team also presented checks to Stand Up to Cancer, the University of Chicago Medicine and the Robert H. Lurie Comprehensive Cancer Center of Northwestern University at Northwestern Medicine.

The donations were made possible through the generous bequest of Nina Nicolai, who in her passing left a lasting legacy of support for CWSC and compassion for other individuals battling late-stage cancer diagnoses.

Through the endowment, a new Nina Nicolai Dream Fund program will focus on providing much-needed respite and lasting memories to individuals and families specifically faced with terminal pancreatic diagnoses and those requesting travel dreams.
