We are the Stronger Together Crew.

For the past year, we learned what the true power of friendship looks like. When our friend was diagnosed with cancer, we learned that showing up matters more than anything.

We learned the power of shaving your head when your friend starts losing his.

The power of stopping by to hang out when he feels lonely or stuck inside.

The power of our moms sitting in his hospital room to play games to make long chemo days feel a little lighter.

The power of posters taped to hospital walls, reminding him that his friends are always with him.

And most of all, the power of celebrating together when he finally finished treatment and kicked cancer’s butt.

We learned how much it matters to show up and how powerful it is for a kid to know he’s not alone. That’s why we’re joining St. Baldrick’s this year. We want to raise money and awareness for childhood cancer, but we also want every kid facing a similar journey to know there is a crew of boys in Hong Kong standing with them.

In the end, we really are Stronger Together.
