Hello everyone! My name is Alex, and I am currently a senior at Suncoast High School. One interesting fact about me is that I am the president of The Sock Drawer, a nonprofit organization I founded that works with Title One Elementary Schools in Palm Beach County as well as the County’s homeless population. The Sock Drawer has given over $200,000 to Title One Elementary Schools and I have personally handed out over 17,000 pairs of socks to the homeless. Philanthropy is the most important aspect of my life, and I joined SFTFS because I respect the work my friend SFTFS founder Sam Friedman is doing and want to help out a fellow philanthropist.    After graduating from Suncoast, I want to major in chemical engineering at Stanford University, my dream school.
