Who We Are

3 FOR A CAUSE was founded by three siblings : Aden, Ethan and Sari Cohen.

When their beloved grandmother passed away from a hard-fought battle with stomach cancer- this invoked a feeling for the siblings to come together to do something powerful in the form of giving back for the greater good .  Since then, they decided to extend their involvement in community service by establishing their own charitable foundation focused on helping those who are sick, developmentally disabled and those at risk, suffering from all forms of illnesses. They have raised and donated a combined value in capital and goods of over $60,000 to multiple charitable organizations. 

Supporting children and their families in need, offers 3 FOR A CAUSE an opportunity to assist those struggling and offer a distraction to the daily fight that they face. Whether its a struggle due to a virus such as COVID-19, cancer or other terminal illness- we value all lives and love to help make a better day for children and local communities .

Donations & Charitable organizations

SOME OF What We Have Donated & Fundraised

Financial Donations

Financial donations are so important. As a non-profit charity, we donate money as well as have fundraised, helping all children & the community in need. We have raised and personally donated over $30,000 to The Red Cross, Direct Relief, Mount Sinai Hospitals, Ronald McDonald House and Cohens Children’s Medical Center.

Our Time

Sometimes, tangible items are not the only thing needed from a charity. Many times it’s simply helping others and dedication to being involved that bring a smile to a child’s face. We sold more than 500 wristbands, raising over $2000 to bring awareness to the No Stomach For Cancer organization.

Toys & Games

Toys of all kinds, especially gently used or new – are a great thing to donate. We worked with Toys Of Hope, providing kids with almost 150 well deserved gifts during the holiday season.

Sports Equipment

Kids love to play sports of all kinds but sometimes they just don’t have the right equipment. Whether its a ball, a bat, a baseball glove, cleats, pads or a racquet- these items are greatly appreciated. We coordinated a sports drive that ended up collecting almost 300 pieces of sports  equipment for underprivileged children.

Books

People might not think of books as something typically donated. Children’s minds are like a sponge. Many children love to read. We organized a 3-day book drive at 2 locations which amounted to 650 books being donated to The Book Fairies organization. 

Clothing & Shoes

Whether it’s jerseys, jeans, leggings, t-shirts or skirts – sneakers, shoes or sandals, there are plenty of children that desperately need a variety of clothes and shoes. We have helped with direct donations to various charitable organizations of over 100 bags of clothing and over 450 pairs or shoes and 450 pairs of socks to Sole4Souls.

From Our Founders

A Few Words From Aden, Ethan and Sari:

Please join us in our mission to help raise money and awareness for children and their families suffering from  disease, those less fortunate and others at risk by helping us with donating your time and money. 100% of all fundraising will directly benefit the children, their families and others in need. 

Our charitable organization- 3 FOR A CAUSE provides us with the opportunity to honor our grandmother, who taught us the importance of being there and for helping others.
