When Alexis Everett found out at age 11 that her mother was diagnosed with breast cancer, she made a brave decision to help. In an effort to help others living with cancer, she began making and selling bracelets to her friends, family and neighbors, and donating 100 percent of the proceeds to the Cancer Special Needs Fund at the Helen F. Graham Cancer Center & Research Institute.

“Even though we’re young, we can make a difference,” Alexis said. “It doesn’t matter how old you are.”
