Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation
When Alex, who was diagnosed with childhood cancer just before her first birthday, was four, she
told her parents she wanted to set up a front-yard lemonade stand. Her plan: to give the money to doctors to help them
find a cure. Her first “Alex’s Lemonade Stand”, held with the help of her older brother Patrick,
raised an astonishing $2,000 in one day. While bravely fighting her own cancer, Alex continued to set up lemonade
stands every year. As news spread of the remarkable girl so dedicated to helping other sick children, people
everywhere were inspired to start their own lemonade stands—donating the proceeds to her cause. Alex Lemonade
Stands goals are:
- To raise money and awareness of childhood cancer causes, primarily research into new treatments and cures.
- To encourage and empower others, especially children, to get involved and make a difference for children with cancer.
