Ducks for Cancer

Mike Foley, the founder of Ducks for Cancer, was diagnosed with Stage 4 Lung Cancer in 2017. After multiple surgeries and treatment, he was unable to continue his work as a Software Engineer. After spending over two years in bed and not doing anything, Mike decided to form a 501(c)3 and began making replicas of the wooden ducks his father had made for gifts growing up. He decided to pay it forward for all the love, prayers, and support he has received during his cancer battle.

 

Mike makes thousands of wooden ducks and donates half the proceeds to one of three charities and we are fortunate that Mike has selected Pink Revolution to be one of his partners. The other half of the money goes toward materials for making more ducks. He is a one-man show and dedicates his time to handcraft and paint each duck in his home workshop in Pepperell, MA.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ducks for Cancer has grown significantly over the past few years and now his ducks are showcased throughout the United States. 

​

Mike has been impressed with the work that PINK Revolution has been doing and contacted us with his plan to support our cause. This newest version of Mike's duck series will feature ducks in PINK honoring those that are going through breast cancer chemo treatment, our survivors, and in memory of those patients who were taken by breast cancer too soon. For every set of PINK ducks sold, Ducks for Cancer will donate $40 to PINK Revolution of NH.
