A big big Thank you to Kevin Ippolito Jr !
Kevin loves Christmas and always decorates the outside of his house (with his Dad and Mom) big time. it's so magical and beautiful!
This year he added a wishing well for donations and he asked us if he could collect donations for Alec's Foundation ! We of course said yes and were so touched that he wanted to do this.
He was so so happy every night he checked his wishing well and found money inside.
He had the biggest smile on his face when he presented us with a bag full of money! He raised $781.57 !!!
He asked what we use the money for and I told him on Alec's birthday we give gifts to the patients and the other times we raise money that we give to the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation for Research to help find better treatments and cures. I told him we can do whichever he wanted to do with the money he raised and he was very sure that he wanted it to go to research. 
Kevin has the biggest heart and is so caring and kind, we are so grateful to you Kevin, this was such a beautiful act of kindness and generosity. And thank you to all who donated to Kevins wishing well. We truly appreciate it!

We want to thank everyone who gave a donation for Alec's Birthday, every gift given ( and there were so many) means so much to us. We were able to make up over 80 gift bags and also had a big box full of toys and bags full of stuffed animals and more toys!!, plus with all of your generous venmo/cash donations, we were able to send in over $860- in gift cards!!
It's just Amazing! ​We are grateful to everyone who helps us celebrate Alec's Birthday by making another child's day brighter. Please know, you will bring smiles and happiness to children and their families who are going through the most difficult of times.
We miss Alec every moment of everyday, and we always will, and it means so much to us that you all think of him, honor him and remember the Amazing soul he is

Al, It's your Birthday, and it's so hard without you here... We miss you everyday and always will. You of course sent us signs because you love us and care so much about us so we know you are with us, like when the bakery said I owe $23 for the cake we got for the Jimmy Fund Staff so they can be celebrated for their amaziness in honor of you. And how Dad got his #23 sign at work. And how your sister Gabs said to me as she was eating a muffin , "you should take a picture of this because it looks like a cross", the frosting made a cross shape on her wrapper.  This is just so Al  :) 
We love you so much Al , Happy Birthday my Bubbies, Mama loves you so so so much

We were able to donate $15,000 directly to The Brain Tumor Program at the Jimmy Fund for research to help kids battling with the same type of Brain Tumor Alec had.
We held onto last years donations so we could send in a bigger donation this year.
We are so  grateful to all who donated.. please know you will make a difference in these children's lives, by helping Doctor's create better treatments to save their lives.
