Join together to assist while Alex heals

Donation protected










Hello everyone! Let's come together and help a dear friend, brother, father, partner, mentor, and spiritual & community leader!

Alex is currently receiving cancer treatment. Everything changes the moment that you receive the initial diagnosis. There is so much more than just physical challenges. Throughout the journey, there are many unforeseen expenses, items not covered by insurance, and lost income from the inability to work.

Those of you that know Alex and Elari are aware of the beautiful community that they have created and nurtured in Virginia Beach and around the world and online. Whether you've met them inside their online community, been to their home over the years for the countless community gatherings they’ve hosted, from monthly Healing Circles, Unity Book Discussion Groups, a Landmark or Wisdom event, or attended one of their holiday events like a community summer picnic, their neighborhood and friends Halloween Haunted Cave, a Christmas Tree Lighting and Caroling event, or if you joined them for Christmas or Thanksgiving Dinner, received a visit or special message when you needed it, had a session or attended an event with one of them, or just came over for a movie night, you've felt the love, and comfort that they share with everyone around them.

Alex and Elari have touched so many people in their community and many people have reached out hoping to help in some way. There is beauty in unity. To be in the energy of togetherness and help each other adds value to all of our lives.

"to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded"

Alex and Elari have helped so many of us breathe easier. Now is our time to give back.

Let's activate our community resources and provide relief where we can!

Thank you so much!
