DELANEY ENGINE

In 2010, Delaney Clements was diagnosed with Stage 4 neuroblastoma, a rare form of childhood cancer, at the age of 7. Delaney is still fighting for her life, but her desire to help other families who have been impacted by cancer is strong. Delaney’s passion for others despite her uphill battle has led to the Delaney Donates foundation. Delaney Donates works closely with the Mesa County Fire Chief’s Association. They own and maintain the pink fire engine named “Delaney” and is located at the Palisade Fire Station. The Mack fire truck is used to raise awareness of cancer. It can be seen all around the Grand Valley at various events raising awareness and accepting donations for the Delaney Donates foundation. All funds raised through Delaney Donates is distributed to local families who have been affected by cancer.
