Dear Friends and Supporters,
I am beyond excited to share some very special news with all of you—I have officially stepped into the role of Full-Time Executive Director of Alex’s Team Foundation! This foundation was created in memory of my identical twin sister, Alex, whose spirit and strength continue to inspire everything we do. Alex’s Team is dedicated to supporting the fight against childhood cancer—funding critical research and nursing programs, raising awareness, and providing support to families who are affected by this devastating disease.
As Executive Director, I’m committed to growing the impact of Alex’s Team, continuing our mission to make a difference in the lives of children and families battling childhood cancer. Together, we can help change the future for these children and provide hope for a cure.
To kick off this exciting new role, I’m going to be running my second Boston Marathon for Alex’s Team Foundation. Running this marathon is always a personal and emotional journey for me, as I run in honor of my sister Alex. Every mile will represent a step forward in our mission to fight childhood cancer, and this time, it’s even more meaningful because I’m doing it as the Executive Director of the foundation that carries Alex’s legacy forward.
In addition, I’m thrilled to share that Watertown Savings Bank, right here in Watertown—where my family and I live—is donating $100,000 to local charitable organizations in their annual Customer Choice Awards! All you need to do is vote for Alex’s Team Foundation to help us be considered for this generous donation. It’s a simple way to make a big impact, and your vote could make all the difference in helping us continue our important work in the fight against childhood cancer.
I invite you to join me in this journey, whether by cheering me on along the route, voting for Alex’s Team in the Customer Choice Awards, or donating to help support our programs and research efforts. Your generosity makes all the difference.
Thank you for your continued support of Alex’s Team Foundation and for being a part of this amazing community. I’m so excited to take on this new role and to continue working alongside all of you to create meaningful change in honor of my sister Alex.
With gratitude,
Arianna Wilson
Executive Director, Alex’s Team Foundation
