Taylor Goit， a 9-year-old girl， makes 50 bracelets a day to raise money for her classmate， Sara Robinson， to help her beat cancer.
“Once I found out she had cancer， I wanted to help，”Taylor said. “I felt really bad for her.” Taylor says she’s made around 500 bracelets to help Sara and her family. Taylor sells them around her neighborhood， at Denver Broncos tailgates and to friends and family. She has already raised $300.
“We have random people that I don’t know decide to give me money to buy bracelets so I can donate to Sara，” Taylor said. Sara’s family was overjoyed when they found out Taylor was making the bracelets. “We didn’t even know Taylor was doing this，” Jay Robinson， Sara’s dad， said， “We were totally shocked. It’s overwhelming and heartwarming.”
Sara’s parents say their daughter keeps the positive energy flowing during her chemotherapy. They credit her upbeat attitude to her strong will and her friends.
“The fact that her school and her friends have started making bracelets and having parties for her is amazing，” her doctor Jean Levy， who specializes in brain tumors at Children’s Hospital， said. “People don’t give elementary school friends enough credit. You hear your friends are sick， and you want to do something， and the fact that her friends are coming around her is amazing.”
Since Sara is not always in school， Taylor holds down the seat， keeping Sara’s presence alive in Ms. Wolfe’s class.
When asked how long she intends to keep making the bracelets， Taylor said： “For a while. Until she has enough money to cure the cancer.”
