Nathan’s Cancer Slayers, a local Arlington fundraising team under Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation, invites the community to Cocktails for a Cause — An Amalfi Coast Evening on Sunday, June 14 in Georgetown. ✨🍸
This inaugural silent auction will bring together friends, neighbors, and community supporters for cocktails, hors d’oeuvres, and a fun silent auction — all raising funds for childhood cancer research in honor of Nathan Fleming, an Arlington student who passed away from rhabdomyosarcoma in 2019, just one week after turning 18.
Nathan was an Arlington student and alum of Jamestown Elementary, Swanson Middle School, and Washington-Liberty High School. His mom, Michele Fleming, formed Nathan’s Cancer Slayers under Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation in 2020, and the team has raised more than $775,000 to advance childhood cancer research.
This year’s auction will support promising research led by Dr. Valter Longo at USC and Dr. JinSeok Park at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles, with the goal of moving this work toward clinical trials for children within the next 2-3 years.
Guests can attend the event in person, browse and bid online from anywhere, or make a donation directly. Auction items include luxury getaways, VIP experiences, local packages, handcrafted items, and more.
Every ticket, donation, and auction bid will be matched 1:1 by Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation up to $30,000, doubling the impact of community support.&nbsp;💪
Event details, tickets, auction preview, Nathan’s story, and more about the research team are available here:
<a href="https://event.auctria.com/5b075d5a-b398-43be-8d2d-e8826b8d5ab9/aa6cd270-8751-11e9-a741-3fcfcb35cbb0" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">NathansCancerSlayers.auctria.events</a>
Thank you for helping spread the word and support life-saving childhood cancer research in Nathan’s honor.
