“About to be auctioned for charity. All proceeds from the auction go towards treatment for breast cancer patients,” Alex wrote.

She also thanked Project Pink Blue for making her part of the event. Alex wrote;

“Last night will forever be etched in my heart. @projectpinkblue Thanks a lot for the fulfillment and inner peace I feel this morning.

“Time and money spent helping people do more for themselves is far better than giving just because you can.

“Now I understand why the Bible says we should emulateChrist-likee qualities. We become His influence, his hands and heart for everyone around us.

“God intervenes in people’s lives all the time but we seldom document this special faith and hope building events.

“Yesterday was a hope raising day and I’m happy I was part of it.”

Speaking at the event, Alex said,

“I know what it feels to lose someone close to you as a result of this ailment,” she said.

“I lost two people to cancer not because there were no funds for treatment but because they did not find out on time. Cancer is real and it kills irrespective of your age, class or social status.”
