How can I be any prouder of this kid? Ethan is 100% Seth. Not only in his looks but in his values. After this hell we’ve been through called cancer that took our world from us, all he wants to do is help others. He is determined to raise $10,000 for the Dempsey Center this year. For those of you that have any of Seth’s work in your house, you know how much he loved what he did and the pride he took in his work. Since we lost him in 2018, Ethan and I have used his photographs to raise money for non-profits. This year, Ethan is raffling them off to help him meet that hefty $10,000 goal. Please read below and consider helping Ethan reach his goal. - Amy ❤️

Ethan Helie is 15 years old and is a Freshman at Brunswick High School. He will be participating in the 2019 Dempsey Challenge in September as a member of Team . All funds raised will go directly to the Dempsey Center. The Dempsey Center makes life better for people managing the impact of cancer by easing the side effects of cancer through complementary therapies, counseling and other support services for individuals and families.
Ethan lost his Dad (Seth Helie) on January 30, 2018 to grade IV glioblastoma; the deadliest of brain cancers. Seth was 42 and battled for only 5 short months. Ethan has seen first hand the benefits of the Dempsey Center. He started utilizing the teen counseling services at the Dempsey Center in November of 2018 and continues to utilize the services. All of the services are FREE which takes a huge burden off of the cancer patients and their families.
Ethan has set a personal goal of raising $10,000. Please help Ethan reach his goal and support Team by making a donation at http://support.dempseychallenge.org/goto/ethanhelie1
