Dan Weishar: Founder/President of Weish4Ever
The late Andrew Weishar had a simple request, to "Pay Forward" the kindness shown to his family during his battle with cancer. There is no love like sibling love, and Andrew's younger brother, Dan Weishar, created the Andrew Weishar Foundation in honor of his best friend.
Dan Weishar is the CEO/President of Weish4Ever, a foundation that brings joy and financial relief to adolescents and young adults battling cancer.
Since its inception in 2013, WeishFest has only grown. What is WeishFest, you might ask? Chicago's one-night music festival filled with live music, food, drinks and positive vibes - 100% of the proceeds go directly to the Andrew Weishar Foundation.
From O.A.R., Natasha Bedingfield, to Mike Posner and The Fray, WeishFest is not only a must-attend event, but also a feel-good one..... all made possible by Dan, his younger brother Nic and their family and friends.
In this episode we touch on the professional athletes that have been involved, Dan throwing out the first pitch at the White Sox game this season, and how community is always a driving force, regardless of the Chicagoland high school you attended!
Lyssin' Up, Pay It Forward today and always!
