Eighth Night for Ethan

What an unusual Chanukah we are about to experience—one that begins in calendar year 2024 and ends in calendar year 2025! The last time this happened was Chanukah 2005. What does this mean? We don’t know, but we think it’s kind of cool. This Chanukah, we welcome you to join us live on our Join Team Ethan Facebook page to light the final candles and to share your own photos with us on Wednesday, January 1, 2025, at 8pm EST. Please text photos of your family lighting the candles to 513.428.1972 or post them on Ethan’s Facebook page. At this time of the year, as we look to increase the light in all of our lives, we remember with gratitude all of the support and light that has poured into our family’s life over these last 11 years.

Dear Team Ethan,

We are so thankful and grateful for all of your support over these past years. It is difficult to keep this group updated on all that is going on with Ethan, and please know that no news is good news in our world.

As we approach the eighth night of Chanukah, we will be recognizing the 10th Annual Eighth Night for Ethan fundraiser on December 25, 2022. All of the fundraisers held in honor of Ethan, are vitally important and allow us to continue to provide him with the best care and treatments available. Given Ethan’s injuries, he will require care and treatment for the rest of his life.

This year, as we recognize the 10th Annual Eighth Night for Ethan, we wanted to do something to give back to the Team Ethan community. We are renting out a local movie theater in Cincinnati and will treat our Team Ethan community to a recently released movie and some snacks.

Please pre-register for this special event by December 23rd at this link: bit.ly/TeamEthan2022

Once we receive your registration details, we will share the specifics of the event with you. You can plan on a late afternoon movie, beginning at 4pm. We will be lighting the Chanukah menorah in-person and via Facebook Live @jointeamethan following the movie.
