Family and Friends,

We have come to the bittersweet decision to wind down operations within the next few months for Isaiah Alonso Foundation. But before we do, we are going to do one last year of $21 for what should be Isaiah's 21st Birthday. (Event will be posted shortly) We will provide grants throughout the rest of this year, so we hope to go out with a BANG!!

We cannot thank you enough for all your love and support over the past fifteen years. You’ve not only helped us navigate some of the most difficult of days for us, but you’ve helped us help so many deserving kids and their families to navigate the hardest of times for them, too. It has truly meant the world to us.

This is not all sad, though. We are immensely proud of all we’ve been able to accomplish through hospital events and individual grants. On behalf of all the families we’ve been able to help financially, THANK YOU. Childhood cancer places a huge burden on families, and it takes a village. We encourage you to continue supporting the work of other wonderful and worthwhile organizations.

We will continue to host our annual Christmas in July events, and we will keep our 501(c)3 status active so your donations for that purpose will continue to be tax deductible, though we will no longer offer financial grants, and we will change our mission statement to reflect that at the end of this year. We will communicate through our page as we have discontinued active hosting on our website.

We wish you all the best and we remain forever grateful to each and every one of you. As always, Isaiah will live on in our hearts, as will the many incredible kiddos we’ve met on this difficult journey.

Love always,
Cheryl and Vinnie Alonso

Huge thank you once again to everyone at Anne-Lise’s Wish for their incredible Easter Basket donation. Claudia, mom and friend delivered these beautiful baskets for us last Friday to the kids in the Aflac wing at Scottish Rite Children’s Hospital. We ended up with 84 baskets this year. Wow, thank you!!!

Hi friends! It's that time of year again! We are collecting new and unwrapped toys to be delivered to pediatric cancer patients in KY & GA. We are accepting items for kids of all ages. We've created two wish lists on amazon for Isaiah Alonso Foundation's Gift Bag Deliveries. You can find the IAF GA wish list here: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/JDJ64QMSSAES?ref_=wl_share And the IAF KY wish list here: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/NSHRVTNPQ3VS?ref_=wl_share. These are just some ideas. We appreciate all donations and they are tax-deductible! If you order from Amazon, please remember we are also on Amazon Smile: http://smile.amazon.com/ Thanks so much!
