Common questions

How do online fundraising pages work?
We run peer-to-peer and team pages through GoFundMe Pro. Create a personal page with your story, goal and photo, join or start a team for your company, school or club, or check the box to fundraise in honor of someone. It takes about five minutes and donors get receipts automatically. Start a page or tell us your idea below and we will set it up with you.
How do I send in money I collected in person?
Online is easiest; we will give you a link. Checks can be mailed to The Alexander Foundation, PO Box 584, Grand Blanc, MI 48439.
Can you send me materials?
Yes. We will reply with a short guide, logo files, a donate link and sample social posts.
For families

You are not alone in this.

If your child has Cloverleaf Syndrome or another craniofacial condition and the bills are piling up, tell us what is happening. We help where we can, and we will point you to people who can help with the rest.

For supporters

Every dollar reaches a family.

Nobody at the foundation is paid. Apart from minimal supplies and tax filing, every gift goes to families, hospitals, schools and books that change how children treat each other.
