Alexandra "Alex" Scott, a young cancer patient, was only 4 years old when she decided to hold a lemonade stand to raise money for "her hospital," so doctors could help other kids like they'd helped her. Alex held her first stand in 2000 and continued to hold lemonade stands each year, inspiring support from her community and across the nation. Although sadly Alex passed away at the age of 8, she knew she had reached the ambitious goal of raising $1 million for childhood cancer research.
Alex's Million Mile campaign is an event that takes place the entire month of September. The goal is to set a milage goal and walk, run or bike to reach it while raising funds that will go towards cancer research.
Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation has made the goal of a million miles total because they figure that's how far a parents with a child suffering from cancer would go to find a cure!
I am carrying on Alex's inspiring legacy by raising money to fight childhood cancer. Will you make a donation? As Alex's life showed, our small contributions can make a big impact. Thank you!
