About InVINCEable Foundation
The InVINCEable Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization with a mission to ease the burden, instill hope and nudge families forward amidst the challenge of a lifetime; pediatric cancer.
Founded by Scott and Kim Van Almen after their son Vince was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia in 2020, the foundation works to gather donations to go directly toward supporting families in need.
This year, the three-year-old foundation held its inaugural gala on February 28 to celebrate the impact that donors helped the organization make on families in 2024. Attendees were welcomed at the MacGregor Downs Country Club in Cary, North Carolina to listen to stories from those who have benefited from the donations, enjoy dinner and drinks, and participate in silent and live auctions. Several MI Windows and Doors team members, including CEO Matt DeSoto, CFO Joe Person, and Sales Leader Chris Cheshire, attended to support The InVINCEable Foundation and its soul-impacting cause.

Jason Cecco, Sales Leader for MI Windows and Doors, serves on the InVINCEable Foundation’s Board of Directors and has been heavily involved in the organization, which is based in his hometown of Apex, North Carolina.

Our first gala was a huge success, with more than $300,000 raised, allowing the foundation to help over 20 families this year.”
