Who is Mighty Mack?
Macauley "Mack" Gibbs and his twin brother were born at 26 weeks gestation in 2023. Throughout Mack's NICU stay he encountered many medical obstacles. After 388 days of fighting, Mack's little body couldn't keep up and we said goodbye to our sweet boy. Mack left a legacy of strength, support, and smiles that we wish to share with other families going through medical hardships.

About Us
The Mighty Mack Foundation is a direct result of the kindness and support that our family received during our extended time at OSF St. Francis Medical Center. Our goal is to provide support and encouragement to families in similar situations.
Mission Statement
The Mighty Mack Foundation provides support to families with loved ones enduring extended hospital stays. We aim to ease the burden of medical bills, travel expenses, and other needs while providing encouragement to smile each day.
Our Impact
Mack's life left an impact on all of those who knew him. Now, it is our turn to use his legacy to make an impact for others. We will continue to update this section as our foundation grows and makes a difference in lives of children and their families.
