The Nathan Syrek Memorial Fund through the 2025 Nathan 5k will provide support to Kendra and Dan Conran, a Coopersville family, to help cover healthcare expenses and related travel costs for their 7-year-old daughter, Millie. Millie requires ongoing care at Boston and Cincinnati Health Systems, and the proceeds from the 5k and associated fundraising efforts will ease their financial burden during this challenging time.
The Nathan Syrek Memorial Fund (NSMF) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization with a mission to:
Honor Nathan’s Legacy in Faith: NSMF was established to celebrate Nathan’s spirit of kindness, generosity, and faith, serving as a testament to God’s enduring love.
Support Families with Compassion: Each year, NSMF prayerfully directs its proceeds to a family facing significant hardship, providing tangible assistance and reassurance inspired by the grace Nathan’s family received during his cancer journey.
Strengthen Community Spirit: The Nathan Memorial 5k brings our community together to honor Nathan, offer prayers of support, and witness the Holy Spirit’s work in turning sorrow into hope and love.
Through this event and mission, we aim to reflect Nathan’s values, support families in need, and demonstrate the power of faith and community.
