Why Avery wants to be a voice for children fighting cancer:

I would like to be a voice for children fighting cancer because I believe that no child ever deserves to go through anything as horrible as cancer. Another reason fighting against cancer is very important to me is because someone very close to me was diagnosed with cancer almost 10 years ago, and now is cancer free.
