PARSIPPANY — The students of Brooklawn Middle School held a fundraiser for “IM4ALEX.”

The Brooklawn spirit was everywhere as they were for 4Alex, just like in 2005 when he made the school proud as a State Officer.

On Wednesday, December 23 students donated a buck and were able to wear a hoodie, and teachers who donated $3.00 were able to wear jeans.

On Wednesday the students and faculty of Brooklawn Middle School raised over $1,300 to support Alex Gallego and his family, with more donations on the way from people who saw their posts. The students proved that “Once a Black Knight, always a Black Knight!”

Alex was the student council president at Parsippany Hills High School during his senior year. He graduated in 2010.

On Sunday, January 3 from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m., Applebee’s, 1057 Route 46 will be holding a flapjack fundraiser for Alex. Alex was a server at Applebee’s.

Tickets are available at the door for $10.00. Parsippany Applebees’s employees will be wearing tye dye ribbon for Alex.

Alex suffered injuries recently and currently is in the ICU fighting to get better. He and his family will undoubtedly have innumerable medical bills and any support that we can give, especially this time of year, will never be forgotten. Please help us reach the goal and show Alex and his family how much love and support he has on his road to recovery. To donate to Alex, please click here.
