Springfield, IL – 03/10/2025 – Del’s Popcorn Shop (“Del’s” or “Company”) is thrilled to market another victory for a fantastic local organization. We successfully raised over $650 for Chad Tough Defeat DIPG Foundation which will be used for finding a cure for this devastating disease.
“Chad Tough Defeat DIPG Foundation is a great example of a worthy cause. They met all the criteria for us as a long-term partner.” Explained Ellie Gross, the Del’s national sales manager. “We love helping organizations raise additional funds for a good cause. In honor of Eli Paine, forever 7.”
Chad Tough Defeat DIPG Foundation. Eli was a kind, affectionate, wild, and smart as a whip boy. He loved singing, playing soccer, swimming in his pool, and being absolutely hilarious. Eli was a friend to everyone he met and had a smile that lit up a room and was somehow delightfully mischievous at the same time. He was inquisitive and creative. Eli loved superheroes, all things Disney and celebrating every holiday and event with the most enthusiasm and joy. Eli was sweet, loving and incredibly adorably honest. He loved his friends and family fiercely, especially his mom, dad and his two sisters. Eli’s enduring fight against DIPG ended on September 20th, 2022. He is now with Jesus healed and whole. Forever 7 and forever loved by those whose lives he touched.
Eli’s legacy, like his rich personality, will be one of substantial impact. Through his memories, and through organizations like ChadTough, families can raise awareness and, ultimately, find cures for these devastating diseases. One day, all children shall have the opportunity to live out their dreams.
