About SuperSibs
Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation (ALSF) recognizes that childhood cancer affects the whole family, not only the child who receives the diagnosis. SuperSibs is dedicated to comforting, encouraging and empowering siblings of children with cancer, so they can face the future with courage and hope. Our Comfort and Care mailing program sends age-appropriate mailings over a two-year period that include coping skills and encouragement for siblings as their brother or sister fights cancer. This program can go a long way towards helping siblings find their footing in a new normal and thrive in the future.

Toddy is 9 years old and an amazing athlete. He loves playing any sport, but he especially loves to teach his little brother William how to play.
Toddy was just 4 years old when his little brother William was diagnosed with neuroblastoma. At the time, he was too little to understand everything that was happening to his baby brother, but he remained very patient with his parents while his parents were back and forth from the hospital with William.
