Alexandra Scott (founder of Alex's Lemonade Stand) |
June 6-8 are official Lemonade Days celebrating 10 years.. While you are enjoying your lemonade with your family and friends in the upcoming summer days, please take a moment to check out a very special website www.alexslemonade.org. Alex was a very special little girl who has inspired people around the world in bringing awareness to childhood cancer. Alex was diagnosed with cancer at age 1 and continued her fight against the disease until age 8 when she lost her battle. At age 4, she announced to her family she wanted to raise money to help find a cure for childhood cancer. With the help of her family, she set up a lemonade stand in front of her house. Over the years, the idea grew and grew and has since raised over 75 million dollars for cancer research. You too can help continue making Alex's dream become a reality by becoming involved as a donor. Please check out www.alexslemonade.org to see how you can get involved, and read the story of a special little girls legacy who will continue to make a difference in so many lives for years to come.
Alexandra Flynn Scott has a vision and you can too.
