UPDATE: It has been confirmed that Aly is going to get to meet Justin Bieber on Saturday!!! Happy, Happy Birthday Aly!
Dear Photography Friends,
I would like to take a couple of moments to share with you a little about a former student I know. Aly was a middle school student when I first started teaching in McFarland. I was also blessed to work with her mom during my first couple of years there.
Last May, Aly was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer. At age 19 she was too old to qualify for Make a Wish. =( Would you take a couple of minutes to help a dream come true for her?
Her friends have started a twitter campaign that has blown up in the past week. It's amazing to see the outpouring of support. In the week since they started their facebook page, they have gained 11,000 friends! They are hoping to get Aly to meet Justin Bieber at his concert on December 15th. Time is of the essence. Please share her story with your friends. Tweet #BiebsMeetAly and help support them however else you can.
Today (Tuesday December 11th) is Aly 20th birthday. Happy Birthday Aly!
