Hi! My name is Ace Pitts. Next week, on May 21st, I turn 8 years old.  I was supposed to go on a trip to Disney World with my mom and celebrate my birthday with friends at school but the coronavirus changed things. 

My mom asked me what presents I wanted for my birthday, but I decided I wanted to do something different. I am happy that my mom, family and friends are healthy. I worry about all the kids who may be sick from COVID-19 and want to do something to help them. So instead of gifts this year, I am asking people to help me raise money to donate to Children's National Medical Center. 

I chose a goal of $800 because I will be 8 years old. Any amount will help, no matter how big or small. Please share with your friends! Thank you for your help!
