A few months after Anthony was born, his family started Ant's Army. Through Ant's Army, they found a voice to raise CMN awareness, support the Nevus community, and fundraise for Nevus Outreach. Anthony has always wanted to share his story, but he also loves using his voice to advocate for all of his Nevus friends. 

Now almost 9 years old, Anthony is proud of who he is and passionate about helping others. When he is not spreading awareness, he is usually playing sports, cheering on his sister, or bringing his energy and personality wherever he goes. 

Anthony's family is incredibly proud of the person he is becoming. His journey has taught them that what once felt scary can become a source of strength, purpose, and hope. They want Anthony to always know that his voice matters, his story matters, and his impact is already bigger than he knows. 

Anthony says, "Sharing my rare to make you aware." To him, having CMN means having a few extra spots, but he is still a normal kid just like everyone else. His spots simply make him more special. 

Raising awareness is important to Anthony's family because they have experienced firsthand the fear and uncertainty that can come with a CMN diagnosis, but they have also seen the incredible strength, resilience, and confidence that can grow from the journey. By sharing Anthony's story, they hope to educate others, support families who may feel alone, and help create a world where people with Nevus feel seen, understood, and proud of the skin they are in.
