event, marathons, head shavings, mitzvah projects... the possibilities
are endless!

Still not convinced that online fundraising for Alex's Lemonade Stand
is for you?! Here's what one Alex's Lemonade Stand supporter had to say
about her Firstgiving fundraising page...
"I loved attaching the firstgiving site
to my general email to friends and family. As our second year hosting
Alex's Lemonade Stands, my children are getting much more involved in
the cause. For them, it was a great way to see how much money they raised
towards such an amazing cause.
Firstgiving is a simple way to make an individual
website personal yet professional. I am not computer savvy and found their
set up very simple. Once registered, you can decorate your site to suit
your needs. My daughter picked a flower, and my son chose the colors.
The site is tailored to your needs and can be restructured as you meet
your goals. My children are 2 & 4 and our original goal was $500.
We met our goal and surpassed it!
By using Firstgiving, people could donate anytime,
anywhere and any amount. We had companies, parents, teachers, the mailman
forwarding our email with link to their friends and family. It spread
the word far more than our family would have been able to do.”
Fondly, Heather from Methuen, Ma
