Derek Ehlert
Operations Coordinator

I became involved with The December 5th Fund because I love its mission and want to help in any way I can. Cancer has touched my life in profound ways — both of my parents fought cancer, and several of my friends have faced the same battle. Being part of an organization that brings joy and relief to families during such a challenging time is incredibly meaningful to me.

What inspires me most is the strength of the families we serve. Their ability to fight, maintain a positive outlook, and work to keep life as normal as possible during such difficult moments is truly remarkable. Outside of my role with the Fund, I stay busy watching my two sons play sports, which leaves little room for spare time! When I do have a moment, I enjoy going to concerts and spending time with friends. And as a fun fact, I have a quirky talent — I can wiggle my ears!
