Twilight Star Peter Facinelli Appears at Westfield Mall

Twilight fans on Long Island will have the opportunity to meet and greet Twilight actor Peter Facinelli (a.k.a. "Dr. Carlisle Cullen") today from 12:00 PM to 4:00 PM at Westfield South Shore Mall, 1701 Sunrise Highway, Bay Shore, NY 11706. Made possible by Cox radio station 106.1 WBLI-FM, a portion of the proceeds from autographs and photos taken with the actor will benefit Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation for Childhood Cancer (ALSF).

In the Twilight Sagas, actor Peter Facinelli plays "Dr. Carlisle Cullen," a compassionate 300-plus-year-old vampire who looks to be in his early 30's. He serves as the town's physician and is the father figure of the Cullen family.

On October 8, Twilight fans can purchase autographs with actor Peter Facinelli for $25, or photographs with him for $40 and additional people in the photo are $10 each. A portion of the cash proceeds will benefit Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation for Childhood Cancer, whose mission is to raise money and awareness of childhood cancer causes, primarily research into new treatments and cures; and to encourage and empower others, especially children, to get involved and make a difference for children with cancer.

106.1 BLI will also give Long Island Twilight fans the chance to win an exclusive VIP meet and greet with Peter Facinelli before the event starts. Fans can listen to Dana and Jeffrey on BLI in the Morning for a chance to win or can enter to win online by visiting:

About Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation:
Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation (ALSF) emerged from the front yard lemonade stand of cancer patient Alexandra "Alex" Scott (1996-2004). In 2000, 4-year-old Alex announced that she wanted to hold a lemonade stand to raise money to help find a cure for all children with cancer. Since Alex held that first stand, the Foundation bearing her name has evolved into a national fundraising movement, complete with thousands of volunteers across the country carrying on her legacy of hope. To date, Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation, a registered 501(c)3 charity, has raised more than $45 million toward fulfilling Alex's dream of finding a cure, funding over 200 research projects nationally.
