Eight years ago, when Kyle Amber was five years old, he came face-to-face with a huge problem: His brother, Ian, ten, was diagnosed with leukemia(白血病). Their parents, Laurie and Henry, were spending much of their   1  with him in hospital. Kyle often felt alone and  2  .

What could a kindergartner do? Not much, it seemed.  3  , Kyle was determined. He looked around and saw lots of kids being  4  for cancer and decided he could help them by helping the hospital, which was trying to  5  money for bone-marrow(骨髓)transplant.

But how? Since Kyle’s grandfather was in the printing business, he  6  bring decorative cards for Kyle, who  7  with the idea of selling them  8 . He made a large sum of momey-$80-for the hospital. His next  9  was a candy sale at his school, Palmetto Elementary, and it has turned into an annual  10  .

And then, people in Miami read about his efforts and were inspired to  11  to donate more money and toys, and things just snowballed.

Within a year Kyle’s idea turned into an official fund-raising organization called Kids That Care Cancer Fund. Today it is one of the  12  organizations in the country run by kids and  13  kids. It’s hard to estimate just  14  the group has collected, says Laurie, but it is more than $100,000. As the Mayor of Miami wrote to Kyle, “ Your efforts have made a remarkable  15  in the lives of many suffering from this disease.”

Helping other kids has taught him to be less  18  . And there’s another thing he learns for sure: “ There is  19  going to be a time when you’re going to have a very hard barrier,” he says. “  20  you overcome that, you can do anything.”
