What We Do
We created the Marley Jaye Cherella Memorial Fund at First Candle to honor our beautiful daughter and all funds raised will go to SIDS research so that all babies have the chance to survive and thrive. We have raised $220,000 to date in support of our goal. We sincerely every one of our generous donors.
First Candle is a national nonprofit health organization uniting parents, caregivers and researchers nationwide with government, business and community service groups to advance infant health and survival. With help from a national network of member and partner organizations, we are working to increase public participation and support in the fight against infant mortality.
First Candle is tax exempt under Section 501(c)(3) of the IRS Code and has been recognized as one of the top fifteen children's charities in America and as a "little charity that does big things" by Parenting and Parents magazines. Most recently, Worth Magazine named First Candle one of the nation's top 100 charities worth of donor support.

On February 22, 2008, our family suffered the most horrific tragedy when our beautiful baby girl, Marley, never woke up from her afternoon nap at daycare. Marley was always a happy baby and brightened each day with her smile. We will miss her and love her every day!
We are looking forward to the Trivia Night and seeing all of our friends and family.
