Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation understands that families with childhood cancer will face many challenges and obstacles. Fortunately, there are many organizations that exist to provide support by offering services which range from financial assistance to appearance and fertility concerns, survivorship concerns and bereavement service. We are currently working to create an extensive database in order to connect families with those resources to make their journey easier. We hope that this hub of information will make a difference for parents and their children.
