Alina needs her Pals!

We have set a goal to raise $38,550 for the out-of-pocket expenses not covered by insurance.

Alina's parents have already taken a considerable amount of time off just to reach a diagnosis.  Even with the amazing support of their jobs, the family understands that unpaid medical leave is on the horizon. 

The Children's Hospital of Orange County is over an hour away from Alina's home which will require time and travel.  Extra help will be needed to watch over Alina's brother and sister while her parents take her to receive her chemotherapy treatments.  This two year journey has barely begun. 

It is an unnerving experience to ask for help, but Alina's parents are willing to do whatever it takes to provide a stable environment for their family.

Should there be any left over funds, they will be directed to the Cancer Research Institute (who has one of the highest ratings on GuideStar), or Kids Courage (a small but powerful non-profit foundation devoted to helping families caring for children with illness).
