So this month we have a very big thing going on. First of all it is going to be my 30th birthday *dances around and takes a bow* So I have chosen 31 of my favorite authors (1 for good luck) To interview and help me raise money for one of the most worthiest causes out there today. The fight against childhood cancer. So here is what the game plan is for this month people. All of the authors have kindly donated something to a HUGE number of prizepacks that we will be raffling off at the end of the month. There are also a number of other contributors that have donated to give you amazing things for donating to an amazing cause. The list of prizes will be updated as they come in. One new author every day. Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation is an amazing organization. I am including my story, Alex’s story and the link to donate down below. Come celebrate with me. The best birthday gift you can give me is helping to save a child’s life.

All my love,

Chick

Chick’s Story

When I was a kid there were two times in my life that I was almost diagnosed with cancer. I was blessed to have avoided that fate even once. My senior year of HS after my second almost diagnosis, I was diagnosed with a chronic blood disease. The rest of my senior year of HS was spent in the pediatric hemotology/oncology ward.

Cancer is something that has touched my life in so many ways from when I was a child to now. When I found out about this charity I knew that I had to do something to help out. This when I go the idea to do this fundraiser.

I turn 30 at the end of the month of July, and so I am taking this huge birthday of mine to raise money for all the kids I can, to try and help them reach where I am today. I have chose 31 of MY favorite authors to interview and we have donations from all over in order to have a huge raffle at the end of the month. Ever little bit helps, even .50. So there you have it, Chick unmasked. Thanks so much for taking part of this and helping me reach my goal.

Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation (ALSF)

Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation (ALSF) emerged from the front yard lemonade stand of cancer patient Alexandra “Alex” Scott (1996-2004). At the age of 4, Alex announced that she wanted to hold a lemonade stand to raise money to help find a cure for all children with cancer. Since Alex held that first stand, the Foundation bearing her name has evolved into a national fundraising movement, complete with thousands of volunteers across the country carrying on her legacy of hope. To date, Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation, a registered 501(c)3 charity, has raised more than $60 million toward fulfilling Alex’s dream of finding a cure, funding over 300 research projects nationally
