Alanβs Inspiring Journey: Overcoming Adversity and Creating Hope Through Gaming
When Alan was just ten years old, his world was turned upside down. After losing hearing in his right ear and experiencing facial paralysis, his family discovered that he had embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma, a rare and aggressive cancer. Alanβs journey through treatment was daunting.
βMy mother explained the situation to me as going to battle against a little monster in my ear,β Alan recalls. The intense chemotherapy and radiation therapy left him battling severe side effects, including alternating cold and heat sensations, and an overwhelming sense of nausea. During these grueling months, Alanβs world became confined to hospital rooms and isolation.
However, Alanβs resilience shone through. To combat his loneliness, he immersed himself in video games, finding solace and distraction in Roblox and online communities. This period of isolation sparked a profound realization: if he survived, he wanted to create something that could offer the same joy to other children facing similar battles.
Determined to keep his promise to himself, Alan dove into the world of game development. He taught himself the intricacies of building, scripting, and designing video games. Today, Alan is studying computer engineering and physics at Pepperdine University and has developed several games for Roblox and Minecraft platforms.
Alanβs latest project, βPandemic Panacea,β is a testament to his dedication. This game is designed specifically for children with cancer, aiming to connect them with new friends and provide a sense of community through shared tasks and adventures. His goal is to create a virtual space where kids can find support and joy, just as he did during his own treatment.
Alanβs story is one of incredible courage and compassion. His journey from a cancer survivor to a game developer reflects a powerful commitment to making a difference in the lives of others. We canβt wait to see how βPandemic Panaceaβ will bring hope and connection to children around the world.

Happy Women's Equality Day!
Every year on August 26th, we celebrate Women's Equality Day. This day commemorates the adoption of the Nineteenth Amendment in 1920, which granted women the right to vote in the United Statesβa monumental step in the fight for equality.
Since then, we've made significant progress, but the journey towards true equality is far from over. Even today, women continue to face challenges in securing basic rights like educationβan essential foundation for empowerment and equality.
To truly achieve equality, we must provide women with opportunities free from gender discrimination, allowing them equal chances to learn, acquire skills, and enter diverse fields. This will, in turn, empower them to reach their full potential and contribute meaningfully to society
Black Girls Code is a one such organization making significant progress in this mission. They are dedicated to equipping Black girls with the skills, opportunities, and resources needed to succeed in tech. Their mission is to empower these young women, ensuring they know they belong in the tech industry. Through partnerships with schools, companies, local organizations, and dedicated volunteers, they offer a range of in-person and virtual learning experiences that build the skills and relationships these girls need to thrive.
Join their mission and help these girls achieve their dreams and take a step towards equality!

βI see it as embracing the fullness of life, pushing beyond what seems possible, and inviting others to do the same. Itβs about stepping into a life marked by joy, purpose, and service to others.β
On this National Nonprofit Day, August 17th, we celebrate Jeff Harmon, the inspiring founder of My Impossible. Jeff's journey began in 2006 when he was diagnosed with Adrenomyeloneuropathy (AMN), and his life took another turn in 2017 when he adapted to life in a wheelchair. Facing the fear of risk, he asked himself, βWhatβs next?β This led to him training and participating in a triathlon, stepping far outside his comfort zone.
This bold step became the spark that ignited the creation of My Impossible. Through this nonprofit, Jeff's mission is to empower and enable individuals with physical, mental, or emotional limitations to confront and overcome their 'impossible' challenges. My Impossible is dedicated to inspiring people to embrace their potential and believe that a life of abundance comes from facing challenges head-on, together.
Jeffβs next endeavor is climbing Kilimanjaro. This climb symbolizes more than just overcoming personal limits; itβs about building a community of support and partnership.
Be part of My Impossibleβs mission to inspire courage and resilience, transforming impossibilities into realities and create a lasting impact on the lives of those facing their greatest challenges.
