WHO ARE WE
The Alexander Trujillo Foundation has been founded in memory of Alexander. A bright and kind-hearted young adult who helped all those he saw needed a hand without thinking twice.
Right before 21st birthday, he was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL). He battled against the odds for a full year touching the hearts of every person who he came across. There was not a moment where he did not shine with brightness bringing in a joyful moment.
Today through the Alexander Trujillo Foundation, he continues to lend the helping hand to all those in need.

SUPPORT RESOURCES
Providing access to information and highlighting the support available not just in our organization but in others is a key component in our organization. As a cancer patient, caregiver or even supporter of someone undergoing treatment can be difficult. Finding and having access to available support is an opportunity we believe you should have.
