September 1st, 2017 - Alan's 37th Birthday
Dear friends and family,
We hope you're enjoying the last days of summer, and that this note finds you well. We're writing with some exciting news on this special day (Alan's birthday).
Thanks to all of you, we've reached our first big milestone - completion of our $25,000 goal/gift to the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia!
The CHOP's Buerger Center for Advanced Pediatric Care, an incredible state-of-the-art medical facility that treats children with serious illnesses, has been helped by our gift.
Our $25,000 gift in Alan's honor is commemorated on the rooftop, where a special garden is providing beauty and peace for kids and families going through treatment.
It overlooks the city of Philadelphia (particularly Alan's alma mater - the University of Pennsylvania), sits next to fun water and play displays, and has beautiful landscaping that will change with the seasons. It's absolutely beautiful and we hope you can visit one day, and experience it for yourself.
We couldn't have done this without the help the of family, friends and donors like you.
Even though we reached this first big milestone, we will continue to raise money and offer support to those who are fighting the battle to end childhood cancer.
Thank you for helping us "give the gift of childhood" to the little patients who are fighting for their lives. It means so much.
Thank you again for your generosity and continuing care/support of Alan's Legacy.
Happy 37th Birthday Alan!
