Alec's Give a Little Love Away Birthday at The Jimmy Fund---October 23

10/25/2014

We once again would like to thank everyone who took part in Alec's Birthday by donating gifts for the patients and their siblings at the Jimmy Fund and Children's Hospital. These gifts will make a childs day a little brighter and let them know that someone loves them and cares about them which also touches their parents and brightens their day as well to see a smile on their childrens faces.
Holly took Cassidy and Lydia in to the Jimmy Fund with all of the gifts and they were able to give some gifts out to the children which made them feel so happy to be able to share Alec's Love and see how he touches others. The staff who knew and Loved Alec and Cassidy were around to visit Cassidy and were so grateful that we do this for Alec's birthday because they love and care about their patients so much and love to see them smile. Christine who was Alec's nurse practioner that he saw weekly , stayed with them the whole time which amazed us since she is very very busy. That shows just how much she Loved Alec.
We Thank you with all of our hearts, doing this in honor of Alec on his Birthday brightens this difficult day for us to.

We want to thank everyone who donated gift items for The Jimmy Fund and Children's Hospital patients and their siblings in honor of Alec's Birthday. We were amazed and deeply touched by the enormous amount of gifts that were given..There was so many that they filled up a whole room.
We want to thank every single person who shared their love with a donation and also want to thank Holly who sent an email to her school staff at The Parker to share what we were doing and in turn the 5th grade teachers chose to support Alec's Birthday as their 5th grade charity to support and sent home fliers with all of the students, and a few 4th grade classes also decided to participate too and a few from the Hajjar (Alec's school). It was so heartwarming to see as Holly dropped off her generous gifts along with all of these bags that came from all of the students and their families, one boy even put $6.00 in an envelope..so sweet.
Thank you Parker staff and students for choosing Alec's Birthday donation drive as your charity, we are touched beyond words, thank you for your kindness and generosity.
And thank you to Nicole who along with her generous gifts also sent out emails to lots of people asking if they would participate and they lovingly and generously did.
And thank you to Bryanna who asked all the kids in her shop class for donations and she ended up collecting a box full of toys. so sweet of her to ask. I don't mean to leave anyone out, but there are so many who donated and I would feel bad if I left someone out, but I hope you all know that we appreciate each and every person who gave a gift and as we went through them all, we felt the Love you have for Alec and us and all of the kids these gifts are going to.
With lots of Love,
Keith, Laura, Cassidy and Alec

Lots of Alec Love

So much Alec love is coming through for us. On Sunday, I went into a store and I was buying something and using a store credit to pay. When the girl tried to ring in the credit it wouldn't work and she told me it wasn't working and that all day they weren't working. She called over the manager and she said these haven't been working today but I will try again. And she did and it worked and she looked at me and said "You Are Magic" . I knew that was my Alec giving his Mama some birthday love ( it was my Birthday).
Then we were at another store and talking to a sales guy who said, "if you spend twenty three hunrded" ...some more Alec love.
Then that night, Cassidy wanted to watch a movie and pickd the movie Blended. As we are watching there are Giraffes evrywhere in the movie because it takes place in Africa and then the people go to sit at a dinner table and they are seated at table 23 and the table number 23 is on a Giraffe statue on the table.
And the boy in the movie plays baseball and his number is #23.
It was much needed Alec love for me and us.
And Cassidy made me the most beautiful and perfect gift. She traced all of our hands and painted them on a canvas with Keith's ,then mine, then hers and then Alec's which we have a copy of because when Alec was in school and he had a good day, his teacher (Miss Correia) would let Alec use the copy machine and Alec had decided one time to copy his hand . So she made this beautiful family gift for me and she said she will add the baby after.
So while it will always be a difficult day , I could feel all the love around me.

Alec Bulmer Benefit Fund - October $2,000 Contest and $5 New Member Bonuses

Hi Laura Bulmer,

iGive shoppers mean $30 - $100 a year in donations, free. This October, new supporters can mean $5 even if they don't shop.

On top of that, your members can help Alec Bulmer Benefit Fund win $1,000 or $500.

Everybody who joins to support Alec Bulmer Benefit Fund and tries the iGive Button through 1/15/15 means $5, free. That alone is exciting. But there's more.

Ask your members to spread the word about how iGive can help Alec Bulmer Benefit Fund. The member who invites the most people who join iGive and try the iGive Button will win $1,000 for his or her cause. Second and third place winners mean $500 for their causes. If the member who got the most new members is supporting Alec Bulmer Benefit Fund, you win!

Your supporters MUST use THEIR personalized iGive Tell A Friend link to invite new members, otherwise that new member won't count towards winning.

It's easy. Send your supporters this link:

http://www.iGive.com/html/tellafriend.cfm

and ask them to use the personalized Tell A Friend link they'll find on that page to invite friends to join iGive. If a supporter isn't already a member of iGive, they can join (and earn Alec Bulmer Benefit Fund $5 when they try the iGive Button).

Your members will also be able to see how well they're doing in getting new members to join and possibly win $1,000 or $500 for Alec Bulmer Benefit Fund.

So, why not? Keep getting that word out so that Alec Bulmer Benefit Fund earns an extra $5 for new iGive members. That's in addition to the normal donation amount. There's never been a better time to ask folks to help your group, at no cost to you or to them.

Why share with your friends & supporters? -

When they shop, they'll help Alec Bulmer Benefit Fund. Why not let them take advantage of over 1,500 stores that want to help?
The average shopper is raising over $30 - $100 a year for their cause ... all for free.
It's simple and automatic..
Five bucks free, just for trying us out.
The more iGive members, the better the deals we can get from stores.

Spread Alec Bulmer Benefit Fund's iGive link everywhere (Facebook's a great way, but Twitter, email, blogs, bulletin boards, and handouts all work).

P.S. If you want to track how your cause is doing, please visithttp://www.iGive.com//html/causestats.cfm.
