"I’m so proud to be a part of Mike & Ike’s and Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation. To hear Alex’s amazing story on how she was fighting the disease herself wanted to do something and came up with the idea to start the foundation was so inspiring to me. I knew this was something I wanted to be involved in when I met Alex’s family and the people at Mike & Ike who are working so hard to help raise money for childhood cancer research."
- Jordin Sparks
In January 2010 Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation turned Philadelphia yellow with the Lemon Ball gala celebration!
The annual Lemon Ball event continued to grow this year with over 800 guests, as supporters from all corners of the country came together for a fun, memorable, and most importantly, inspiring evening to raise critical funds in the battle against childhood cancer. The evening began with a short program featuring the words of Liz & Jay Scott (Alex’s parents and 2010 Lemon Ball Co-Chairs), followed by a fun-filled night of dancing and auctions.
For the past three years, the Lemon Ball has attracted more than 500 guests from the Greater Philadelphia Area and beyond, raising nearly $1.5 million toward achieving Alex’s dream – a cure for all children with cancer.
