Support 13 year old Alex Anderson in his worldwide fundraiser for VHL!

After deciding to hold Alex Jay VHL Day in his hometown this May, Alex Anderson from New Jersey decided to push further and get others involved. Alex came up with the idea to have a worldwide fundraiser and with your participation his dream is coming true!

 

 

"One of my main goals for AJVHLD is to get kids involved in fundraising.  I have often felt that kids feel powerless in today's society.  Giving them an opportunity to participate in helping to cure cancer also gives them a feeling of significance.  When I'm fundraising, I always feel more significant in the world, like I really matter.  I have been lucky to be able to pull together a fantastic team of middle-schoolers to help me with the fundraising stands in my small community on May 9th. Each student is excited to help in any way they can, and the teachers have been so supportive! We all feel like we can make a difference.

 Another one of my visions for the big day would be to have all participants in the USA do the same fundraiser from coast to coast. Other countries have other cultures and may have other fundraising ideas which will be just as fantastic, but since we will all be working together, I know it will be a huge success. That's my mantra. "Working together is the one true path..." It will be a truly inspiring day, when the world can unite for a cause, despite wars and disagreements. We are all on this Earth, so we are all family. And family helps family. We can be an incredible force when united."
 

Thank you,
Alex Anderson
