Thanks to Everyone for a Great Year At Alexandra's P.H.A.T.E.

Well everybody, it is that time again, to reflect back on 2010 and be thankful it was a great year.  This past 365 days was amazing for Alexandra's P.H.A.T.E. foundation.  Here is a list of some of the highlights:
  • April 2010--Donated a helmet with the assistance of Orthomerica / STARband to a family in Pittsburgh, PA.  Christopher has since graduated from his STARband and the results were wonderful.
  • June 2010--Donated a helmet with the assistance of Orthomerica / STARband to a family in South Carolina.  Adell has since graduated from her STARband and had amazing results.
  • September 2010--Alexandra's P.H.A.T.E. received our 501(c)3 status from the IRS.  We can now concentrate our efforts on fundraising efforts and donations.  Any donations made to Alexandra's P.H.A.T.E. are now tax deductible.
  • October 2010--Visited the STARband Summit in Orlando, FL.  Our family was invited to be a part of the Summit and Gary was a keynote speaker.  It was fantastic and it was nice to finally meet alot of the orthotists that we share common goals with.  Orthomerica was kind enough to provide DisneyWorld tickets for our family.  Thanks Blake and Valerie for everything.
  • December 2010--Donated a helmet with the assistance of Orthomerica / STARband to a family in Idaho.  One of a set of twins, whom both needed helmets, was denied for insurance payment.  We ended off the year with a bang by assisting the family with a donation. 
We have recently begun a worldwide search for representatives of our organization.  The success and response has been great so far.  In 2011, we hope to continue to spread awareness and help families in need, any way that we can.

Thanks again to everyone, and please visit our webpage at www.alexandrasphate.org for more information.
