Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation for Childhood Cancer

Your donation counts, here's how!

“I am honored to receive this grant from Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation, and am inspired by Alexandra’s story. This funding will jump start a clinical research project with great implications for children, whose disease has been unresponsive to traditional therapies, giving new hope to them and their parents.”

- Mark Kieran, MD, PhD, Director of Pediatric Medical Neuro-Oncology at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute

Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation is committed to finding a cure for all childhood cancers. To date, we have funded over 200 research projects at more than 65 institutions across the country! In addition to funding cutting-edge research into finding better treatments and ultimately cures, we also fund nursing grants to improve the quality of life and care of children with cancer.

While the majority of our funding goes toward research, we are also innately aware of the struggles that families face throughout their battle with childhood cancer, emotionally, financially and otherwise, and have created programs to assist them.  The Alex’s Lemonade Stand Travel Fund helps families with travel expenses as they travel for treatments that their children need.  Our annual Childhood Cancer Symposium brings childhood cancer families together to learn about the disease, treatment and beyond.

Without the support of volunteers and supporters (like you!) we wouldn’t be making important strides toward eradicating childhood cancer as well as improving the lives of children and their families as they battle the disease. Thank you for making a difference for children with cancer everywhere.
