We are so incredibly excited to share with you all that our Hearts of Gold Gala raised a whopping $70,022.40 (and counting)!!!!  We are still collecting final donations but we far exceeded our $60k goal and all in all we are over the moon with your generosity, love, & your support of our foundation and our Hearts of Gold Gala event celebrating 10 years of love!!!

To say the evening was special is an incredible understatement.  We feel so blessed by every moment and by each of you who joined us.  Everything from our Honorary Family Kendall, Michelle, & David sharing a little of their story, to the live auction bidding with professional auctioneer HL Wenger and finishing off the evening with your incredibly generous paddle raise donations and finally dancing!!! 

We had a wonderful time and hope each of you who joined us did as well!!

A huge Congratulations to each of our Hearts of Gold Volunteer Award Recipients.  We thank you for your service, support, and love that you have each poured into making Alex’s Army what it is:  Trish Weinstein, Brett & Tawni Schwemer, Bernadette & Kevin Long, and The Dunham Family!

Thank you again to our event sponsors – Heart of Love Sponsors: Simply Divine Decorating & Staging; to our Heart of Hope Sponsors:  OFW Law, and The Dunham Family; to our Heart of Compassion Sponsors: Calverton Self Storage, Olamar Interiors, Milestone Towers, North Real Estate, Superior Paving; and to all of our family ticket sponsors!

Special Thank You to Pastor Barry of Park Valley Church for sharing a special blessing over dinner, our families, and all impacted by cancer.  Thank you also to LCS Site Services for donating an incredibly luxurious shuttle for our attendees.  Thank you to all our In-Kind Auction Basket and Wine Grab Donors for contributing towards the success of this event!

Thank you to our amazing planning committee, our Founders, all our volunteers, and our speakers for the evening! 

It truly does take an army to fight childhood cancer and we feel as though we have the best army around!
