Support organization

Alex’s Team Foundation

Alex’s Team Foundation accepts public nominations for free Alex’s Care Kits for children receiving cancer treatment. Each kit contains clothing, comfort items, activities, a journal, and socks and is shipped directly to the nominated child. Nominations are rolling, and the organization says nominators receive an email within 24–48 business hours. The required form supports ages under five through 14 despite broader page language describing any child, and the exact shipping boundary is not published. Other family-support initiatives are mentioned but lack enough current access and eligibility detail for finder records.
