Join us for our 3rd Annual Battle of the Bands fundraiser event! This event, held at the awesome Ned’s Irish Pub in Herndon, is always a ton of fun for all. We are excited to bring back some of our favorite bands to battle it out while introducing a few NEW rockin’ bands this year! Entrance is free, donations are collected at the door, we will have our always popular BOTB event merchandise, Alex’s Army merchandise, lots of super awesome raffle prizes, trivia games and prizes, and MORE!

For those who want to make a night of it, we have arranged a room block at the Embassy Suites Hilton Dulles Airport which is only 2 minutes from Ned’s! This atrium style hotel includes continental breakfast in the morning and has a beautiful pond in the lobby. Our event rate is $85.00/night for a double or queen bed room, rooms can be booked directly through the hotel using the group code ‘Alex’s Battle of Bands’.
Spread the word and let your friends know you’re coming on Facebook.
Kids Helping Kids Care Packages
Our 2016 Kids Helping Kids Care Package Donation Drive was a GREAT success! With the donations we received just last year we were able to fill over 350 care packages which were mailed to children and families whose lives have been impacted by various childhood cancers as well as to 6 different Children’s Hospitals in the U.S. Pictures of last years’ event are below.
Hospitals we reached in 2016 included
*Inova Fairfax Children’s Hospital, Falls Church, VA
*Children’s National Medical Center, Washington DC
*Pediatric Specialists of Virginia Clinic, Falls Church, VA
*Kosair Children’s Hospital, Louisville, KY
*UVA Children’s Hospital, Charlottesville, VA
*Children’s Hospital of St. Louis, St. Louis, MO
Our 3rd Annual Kids Helping Kids Care Package Donation Drive is about to kick-off in March 2017, and we are looking for participation from local Northern Virginia Area Schools and Organizations to help us reach even MORE hospitals this year!
Attached on this page are information pamphlets that you can use to reach out to your school or organization. Contact information for this years’ drive can be found on the attached Letter of Support. We will walk through step by step with your school or organization, so that you have everything you need to make your drive a success!
Our Kids Helping Kids Care Package Donation Drive is a GREAT way for kids in the community to GET INVOLVED and to help their classmates whose lives have been forever changed by childhood cancer!
Thank you in advance for your continued support.
It takes an Army to fight Childhood Cancer…TOGETHER we are Alex’s Army!
