Alex’s Lemonade Stand. This remarkable charity was started in 2000 by 4 year old Alexandra Scott who was suffering from pediatric cancer. She was determined to find a cure so that more children would not need to suffer. In her too short life, Alex raised over $1 million for cancer research. Her courageous and generous spirit lives on every year through lemonade stands, 5 K runs and a variety of other fundraisers. To list your stand as a Alex’s Lemonade stand, go to their website: www.alexlemonade.com.
There is also a book which chronicles Alex’s tale of lemonade charity and how one girl with determination and drive can change the world- no matter the obstacles against her- a book on true empowerment!
